Go get it then

your not even a good apprentice never mind businessman,listen to the advise your not ready to go it alone get a few more years behind you then think about it while earning a decent wage without the stress of worrying how to pay it

OP im guessing you look at the invoice for the job and think its way too much. Thats with your van etc payed for by that invoice. Look at the numbers again and work it out. If not you will be another ssiab man in a van with a chip.

Quite a bit which will be the same if you are part time (like me) or not.

Efficiency Insurance

Public Liability Insurance

Business type car/van insurance

At least some stock as spares against call outs

Ideally a separate landline or at least the appearance of one that directs to a mobile

Book-keeper (or DIY)

Accountant (DIY can be done, but not always the best way)

Vetting if your hoping to be approved

Ltd. status if you're hoping to be approved

That's just off the top of my head.

Thanks for info, taken onboard! Do you get a lot of business?
