    For what its worth iv been keepin an eye on it for a few weeks.

    Iv looked into it a bit and you pay for an account monthly.

    Have a really good look at your area first tho as There isnt much tiling wise in mine. Also some off the people with accounts you cant beat on a price as in 18sqm off tiling some body bid £90. 8 sqm in a kitchen £60.

    If your willing to so anything for brass theres bits like moving a fridge £45 or knocking down and removing a garden brick wall £150.

    If not then i dont think its worth the brass theres alot off cowboys on. Iv been looking on it for 2 month and im desperate for work and havent bothered in getting an account.

    Just my 2 penneth worth
