Estimating Gone Mad

Its the same in all trades General. Everyones going backwards,all are struggling to get the rates of a few years back. Whoevers the cheapest gets the job now. Im on a few other forums,plasterers reporting £1 a mtr rates by Boso's. Others taking 50-80 a day to feed the kids.
 
Just having a look through this thread
And so depressing! I run my own company
In nw London and over the last 5 years
I've had to drop my prices about 30%
Just to win jobs of these foreign firms
That are getting all the work!
At times just feel like giving it all up!

They do not go bust all they do is shut the firm down and then start up the same day from the same yard with a slightly different name, the ba5tards know how to milk the system and it is bringing all the good boys down:mad:
