Do you offer special deals or offers to attract customers? I'm looking for ways to offer a good deal to build up customers then do a good job so I get return custom in the future.

I know in the summer you see set prices for outside taps etc.

Or am I better of sticking to my £125 first hour charge?

If you get work and get paid why change it?
 
TBH I wouldn't try and do an outside tap one as I've seen them for £30 installed
 
I don't really charge £125 for the first hour.

Last Plumber, I understand what you are saying. I am getting a lot busier with my private work, it's been nice and steady since the beginning of summer but I can hit a week or 2 where I do not get much.
 
Is that one of those three week Plumbers Shaun?
Oh no, they're on £35k weren't they?
That's 1166 tap jobs.
I suppose three a day for 365 days a year would cover it.

Maybe and it's a washing outside tap kit, you know the ones self cutting tee etc
 
£30 for an outside tap, that's not good. I can imagine guys like that being busy but never really making much money.

Yep but stealing work / driving the prices down,

I would chase the good customers and keep them happy no matter what

When I first started out I offered reductions on boiler services during the summer. It got a fair amount of work in and I have kept a few regular customers from it. Most were just after the deal and didn't want to pay for a full price one the following year.
