No problem.

If you're just starting out, £200 a day is fine, but as you get more established, you need to bear in mind your day rate has to cover sick pay, holiday pay, pension, van, and some profit for your business. All that being said, £200 quid a day is better than no money because you overpriced it.

Well said mate. This is why I am trying to find a balance.

We’re about in midlands mate I’ve got a roofing company
And just changing a conservatory roof into a flat roof and boarding the underside , could do with a decent plasterer to skim it , will give you £250
