Just paid £400 inc vat ; -)

Looking for subcontractors to help our expanding company. Work is a mix of private residential (no contract work), Light industrial and commercial. Candidates must be 17th edition qualified, preferably with a test & inspection qualification although not essential. We are a CIS registered...

Yeah the new legislation is a 12 month period. Been advised to include on the T&C's text that says 'by agreeing and accepting these T&C's you waive your right to the 14 day cancellation period'. Apparently that stops any legal recourse.

Just been advised that as of 13/06/2013 new legislation comes into play which affects (along with lots of other businesses) anyone selling services. Now, we don't use contracts, always having done things the 'old fashioned' way - a verbal agreement and handshake and to this day, after 7 years...

TT systems account for circa 99% of my domestic work and as a standard fit we use 30mA dual RCD C/U's, 10mm earth and 4' earth rods and regularly see Ra readings of 20 ohms - 190 ohms. Only once have I had to install multiple spikes (4 to be exact) due to unknown subtrate giving higher than...

I am looking for electrical contractors to work on projects in Gloucestershire. I have several months commercial work which involves installation within a listed building to include recording studio / hotel / cinema / spa etc. This is a very prestigious client / project and contractors must...

Hmm, these are the details on his email header. GROSVENOR WORKSPACE SOLUTIONS LTD 44-46 Whitfield Street LONDON W1T 2RJ   t   020 7268 5888 w  www.grosvenor.uk.com

Should it? Or have I missed something.

I won't fit anything but Aico. We achieved Aico accreditation recently (which means very little but does get us work!) and to be fair, I like their range and haven't fitted or found anything as good in the last 10 years. Of course, it is all personal preference.

Hahaha I would say no chance of that. Googled them expecting some nasties but nothing. Surely they can's have mugged off companies all over the capital without anything appearing on the net?

That is my concern!

Had a call today from a chap asking if I would like to quote on some commercial work. Sends me the details and seems a bit odd as his co are London based, as is the job - but we are based in the South West! The company is GROSVENOR WORKSPACE SOLUTIONS LTD. I asked him how he got my details as...

Found one.

Does anyone have a template of a 'front' page PAT test cert I can use / modify? I have the inventory done, just need a nice front page cert to show company details, dates etc etc

A good accountant will give you the best advice. I pay the directors of the company a salary of £675 a month (tax free limit) and then the rest is dividends which are taxed at a rate as low as 10%. Last year we paid corporation tax (a tax on the company profits) but paid no personal tax. It is...

I went Ltd 3 years ago. Big tax breaks and the right accountant won't charge you a fortune. My first accountant tod me his fees for the year were £2000. He lasted a few weeks and my current guy charges me £480 a year and does payroll, vat, directors self assessment etc etc. If you are going to...

Batty, you are bang on mate. My vans have a £750 excess and I'm just not happy to mess around and risk it! I leave the dare devil stuff to my off-roader

Yup, we closed for the day and looks like we will be closed Monday too (Gloucestershire). Anticipated it so was an easy call to make. Just spent the morning bombing around in my Landrover admiring the idiots who have taken their lives into their own hands and got stuck. Just seen an 80 grand...

www.kashflow.com I used Sage for years until I started using this 6 months ago and it is a brilliant bit of kit. Sends you emails to remind you that you have overdue invoices / purchases etc and sends automatic reminders, emails invoices to customers at the touch of a button etc and is totally...

Hahahaha why not
