Thanks, Hoody. It's really reassuring to know that there are some career change success stories out there - and I don't mean in terms of getting rich quick and easy, either. You sound like you have similar motivations as I do: Office life is just a bit too much like being dead. Nice website, by the way.
 
lol.. now I know your taking the micky, the website is terrible, but it will do till I have the right frame of mind redoing it 😉

Yep - if your motivated by money, plumbing is not the answer, I like helping people, fixing stuff and feeling like what I do makes a difference. If I plumbed full time I am pretty sure I could make a living from it and build it up to a good business model, but it will take 2 years i think to get my name about as a good/honest/affordable plumber to fill a weeks working hours. till then, every job you take you will be because your cheaper/available/just got your leaflet.. Now I like recommended/local/independent. i walked the local streets a few months back and got some work from it - now I'm being recomnemded in the community, doing small jobs has turned into future big jobs where I've been the only plumber to actually turn up to look at the shower problem/tap drip/leaking loo etc.

Hard work, if/when you do start - do it in spare time, people like evening/weekend work and see how it goes with cashflow still coming in.
