Hi ladies and gents,
A week or so ago, i set up an e-petition, to highlight the large electrical companies that constantly strive to take away our terms and conditions of employment. They want a hire and fire workforce, who bend to their whims. They dont want to pay us holiday pay or sick pay...

We have not had any commercial projects yet but I have been asked by a family member about the fixing strategy to a modern commercial roof because they are considering it.
