Hi Guys

I am new to this page and I am looking for a bit of advice. I have spent a lot of time in Tenerife as my parents had a holiday home there, but now I am looking to make a permanent move to Tenerife but I am just trying to find out a bit of info. I am a qualified plumber in the Uk I also carry out a lot of handyman type work helping out my customers, I was wondering is the market swamped with british expat plumbers or is there room for 1 more ? And does anyone know what sort of prices the plumbers charge ?
thank you

Lee

Think u will b . I found it hard to find plumber & handyman. To reform bathroom, Found a great English guy does very good job & charges approx 10e hour. Maybe less than what your use to but the average wage there is around 6e an hour.

Lots of retired people advertise for someone to do odd jobs like putting up curtain fittings. Replacing fittings in toilets is always a problem & to find someone to do small plumbing jobs Painting & small repairs. Check out Giz a job. Tenerife / Face book/ advertise in Canarian weekly.

Hi Lee,

Good plumbers are always hard to find, but they are available. I am getting used to paying around 15-18 EUR per hour for a good plumber and 12 EUR for your average (but decent) handyman.

Hope this is of help!
