I am sure you would accept the nationalities to be highlited if there was some negative issue regarding their working conditions and you would be the first to shout about exploitation.

It seems quite reasonable to offer some insight into this earning power.

I am not too sure where the debate goes from it though, perhaps why arent British brickies not earning similar, or are the British brickies that are just as skilled and committed unable to access this paid work, but perhaps they are anyway, I dont know but the information really hasnt corrupted me.

It doesn't seem overly steep for a profession where you're not guaranteed to have work every day.

£200 a day isn't unreasonable. The last plumber I spoke to about a job charged £350 a day, I think that's a little steep

£200 for a 'water rat' seems about right and £300 upwards for gas or specialist (white goods, bathroom install/tanking etc)

In my (non bias..) opinion of course.

So, basically Portugese brickies earn around the same as other brickies? Cracking thread this.

I'm thinking of going back to Mechanical Engineering, I did a city & guilds 228 in mech engineering years ago. I also worked for a local company where I was a trainee toolmaker. I decided to see what they have at Brighton College of Technology in Engineering, looks like that has all gone too. It's terrible isn't it, and they wonder why they can't get people with skills anymore. Closet place is Crawley now.
