I usually try for a day a week that i put aside just for small call out jobs,(which is usually my best earner by far), somedays dont even get a drill out and can pull >£500 a day quite regular

If only i had enough to fill my diary everyday

But this is the ‘issue’ if you can call it that.
These £400-500 little jobbing days aren’t every week.
But when you get one and nail it you can earn good money which is nice and never to be sniffed at.

Chatting to a friend on Saturday who is a plumber , he can pull £800+ on a good call out job day. But again these days don’t happen every week. £95 per hour callout and parts on top.

But we have to be careful suggesting this is ‘the norm’ as clearly it isn’t otherwise all tradesmen and women would be driving Bentley cars and living in £2,000,000 mansions
