Plumbing. A lot of sparks won't touch it, so it gives you a competitive edge if you can do a bit, for things like showers. Customers generally prefer to deal with just 1 tradesperson for this sort of thing.

Well I do all them things and more so I’m on me way dusty!I quite enjoy plumbing ( I plumbed my own bathroom make-over and I plumbed my parents new bathroom and new kitchen)
but because I am not a trained plumber I don't generally offer it as one of my paid services. Although I do get lots of people ask if I do boilers and bathrooms etc.
I reckon a one man band in my area who could do plumbing , electrics , tiling , plastering etc could probably earn well over a grand a day
Ive had jobs for 4 months on my own. very very rare I need a labourer >Clients like their privacy and they hate the living daylights out of scruffy trade types that you always wonder if you can trust them. We sometimes see stuff that needs to be private even if the media would pay well for the details !!!!!!I quite enjoy plumbing ( I plumbed my own bathroom make-over and I plumbed my parents new bathroom and new kitchen)

Ha! One advantage of my line of work (and general appearance) is I don't get such poisoned chalice offers!100% if I ever get an idea things good go wrong and a female is acting a bit "tarty" ..I am off . Its not worth it and Ive seen a few guys really regret it .From cock rot to mad calls in the middle of the night or a Husband been told and wanting to kick the ---- out of the guy etc . And I have had to "escape " a few times ....some of these wealthy women are nuts after a couple of drinks which they seem to like .
Become a painter, or a plumber, overnight, maybe?So that made me train and qualify .
So what else would you do to add to your worth etc ? Obviously this is more Domestic type work!
