Why I don't advertise on facebook....

The post has gone now but an actual plumber said he'd put a new syphon in for £50 and they tore him a new one...
I remember one last year of someone doing outside taps for £25, absolute joke.

£50 - £60 would be about right

As in they were having a go at him for £50 being too expensive?

How on earth is anyone doing an outside tap install for £25, it costs that much just to turn up to the front door once you factor in all of your costs!

I was wandering whether it might be worth setting up a facebook page to advertise (planning to move to London at the end of the year from Birmingham for family reasons and the bulk of my word of mouth is currently back in Brum), clearly not worth wasting my time with!

I wouldn’t earn any money at that price.

You can do a syphon in 30 minutes? On a 20 year old toilet where the bolts are corroded?
