We
are updating our list of approved contractors and are keen to hear from people
who may have skills in the areas below. This may be your main occupation or something
you do in your spare time. It’s important you have your own tools, equipment
and transport, plus if the job is a regulated one (eg. Gas Engineers) you must
have the required paperwork. It’s also important that you have some time in
your diary – the nature of our business is that we need things done quickly, so
if you’re booking 6 weeks in advance you’re no use to us. If English if not
your first language, your English must be good enough for you to deal with us
by telephone or email – we do not visit jobs with contractors every time.
