  • It made me think there might be a business idea in some kind of concierge service for trades to handle the comms, booking jobs in, general customer service.

    They exist. As an example we had some insurance work which was done through Masterfix. The guys that turned up were self-employed. It was all quite thorough, they were very skilled and fairly good with detail (although at least one was an anti-vaxer and they didn't lift electrical accessories when painting walls). Not sure what their premium is.

  • Maybe when commercial premises open again availability will get better. Imagine a lot are doing restaurant / office renovations whilst they are empty .

  • Lots of domestic too. People like me in their home a lot more than usual so more annoyed with the list of jobs that haven't been done and a bit of free cash since it isn't being spent on a fortnight in Mallorca.
