Fenhams, a local firm of plumbers were advertising the other day.
They were offering £50k p.a.
Might take a while to be able to afford the Bentley, but not too long!
Cheers

My brother inlaw is a central heating plumber, he makes about 40k officially and reckons about the same again working for himself 
Depressing isn't it

Also, would you really let him near your house?! Looks a bit iffy to me!

"How much do plumbers earn" their earnings are directly related to the desperation in the customers voice.
Similar to dealer garages and dentists.

They are offering, so they take in at least three times that.
So, self employed, hardworking and long hours (like 12 -15 hour days), reckon 150k quite obtainable. Then there is the cash aspect too!
$120 is not much - this is NZ$ - about $2.5:£1 = £48 - Make that on one call out charge.

My builder chum asked if I'd help him on a job as he had promised to fit it in before he went on his jollydays. I owed him a favour or two and
had a few days off work so I agreed.
I was there for two full days and an afternoon to tidy up and he gave mw £1500. I was gobsmacked!!
He then said with a wink, that he had put in a high price because he didn't really want the job and he was 'doing nicely out of it'.
I never did ask how much the job cost the customer!!

copper's easy too, the only bit deserving of more money is gas work due to corgi, but thats hardly rocket science either!
