    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    Ah great! I use Easycert so that suits me perfectly! Do they notify build g control or do I have to? NAPIT do it for you apparently... ?

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    So I'm looking at the best part of a grand to register with them. From what I've read, they charge pert cert you upload?

    Thank you both for the info! :) Much appreciated.... ?

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    Sorry to keep harping on but does anyone care to offer insight into going with either NAPIT or NICEIC? Do certain potential clientele prefer one over the other at all? I know that NICEIC is more established so more popular.....

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    100% correct. I would be over the moon to be honest.

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    This is absolutely fantastic information! I wasn't aware of this at all and was worried about how I would show them a job I hadn't even looked at yet. Ok, I think I have enough information to actually start the ball rolling on my new venture thanks to you guys! :) I will print off the crucial...

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    The guy I work for works off honesty and keeping things flexible. In this case, it will work in my favour. The last place I was at (for 6 years) frowned upon it if it infringed on the employers needs. But, it was a company where, if you were a mate of the boss you could pretty much do what you...

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    I don't have a contract at all. There appear to be no rules where I work to be honest, just turn up and get the job done.

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    Whenever I complete any works in a property I always make sure to discuss the completed work with the tenant before I leave so I know I have explained it adequately in a manner they will understand (how the new CU's RCD/SPD operates for example). I do the same for any newly installed accessory...

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    My sentiments exactly! Thanks for you kind words! :)

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    I don't expect to be an overnight success story and I know it will take time to build up a decent client base. A website? I think that would be a great idea! I follow David Savery on youtube and his website is awesome! Could only wish to have a site as professional as that!!

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    I plan to get both for sure as I'll be providing professional advice AND doing install/remedial works.

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    I expect to do a few freebies every now and then to be honest. I find gestures like that go a long way in securing future work! I plan to teach the wife the joys of EasyCert :D

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    I cannot begin to tell you how this information will help me! Thankyou so much for this! :) I have BS7671, OSG, Guide to building regs and guidance note 3 all are 18th edition so I'm covered in that regard. The H&S documentation etc I'll download and amend as required. Evidence of learning: I...

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    Agreed. I have managed to get a sneaky peak at some invoices recently and it has given me a bit of a guideline to what sort of prices I should aim for. I will definitely not undersell myself. One of my friends is self employed (not an electrician) and I spoke to him last night, he has given me...

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    You've really inspired me with this info Pete! I read it and felt that my efforts will be rewarded especially seen as though you started out at exactly the same age as me! :) Happy Birthday by the way! ? I really do take pride in my work and enjoy the good feeling of the customer when the job...

    Hi all! Old(ish) spark looking to go it alone but unsure where to start?

    I'm in Manchester so between 120 - 150 sounds about right....
