Its slowed up over the last few months but got a few "hospital" jobs to tide us over for a few months. I have got 17 houses starting in a few months which should then roll over on to the 26 which is for the same builder so pretty much already got them in the bag:stooge_curly:

Has the customer accepted the 4K price? The trouble is sometimes you are competing with people who are willing to work for £100 a day and up being busy fools not earning much and wont be in business for to long. Stick to your guns and don't join the race to the bottom :sifone:
