Female Plumber Starting Own Business although she might regret her landrover rant.

[Toggles]

Hi all,

Little info for you beforehand; Fully time served apprenticeship, plumbing/ gas both domestic and commercial, variety of systems covered. General breakdowns, servicing, maintenance, refurbs on a daily basis in early years. Later some management and other professional experience along way ( Not the call girl type! lol) Been in industry 12 years to date..........

Whats your general opinion/ advice on female plumber starting own business?
Is there a market for female plumber ?
Do you think she can earn a living at it?
What do you think the chances of success are as a female out there are ?
What do you think the risks/ pitfalls are ?
Would you use her to sub certain work out/ recommend her to others?

Any other thoughts and general advice would be greatly appreciated from all you wise people!

Thanks
Toggles

Grt your post count up and you will be granted access into the plumbers arms. A private non public area where the rules are more relaxed.

Only if I can have pink drinks with umbrellas in ?
Thanks, I'll try to work harder at my post count.... On this beautiful Easter holiday! haha

Job 38.11.

It's a biblical reference I use when closing down threads.

"Hitherto shalt thou come and no further."

I'm not a bible thumper, I just liked that one.

Re: Female Plumber Starting Own Business

Hi Toggles, there are plenty of ways for you to stand out from the crowd so do something different and what feels right for you and your 'brand.' It's all about brand identity, and everyone is right there is a market for it but you'll have to search hard for it and prove yourself before word gets around to the big money jobs.

Re: Female Plumber Starting Own Business although she might regret her landrover rant

There's a company in London called Home Jane who hire only females to carry out all sorts of maintenance in the home and work. We used them for our blocked toilets at work and they were fab.

They might hire on a contract basis or per job (although I don't know where you are based)

Good luck!
