Starting out on my own

Depends I have had to pay £260 a day before now, but I had no choice I needed to get stuff done. But it worked out quite well we had booked five days for the job, he did it in three, plus we had charged the customer a premium to get it done at short notice. 

So it was a win-win situation for you there Peter, you got a decent subby who got his daily rate and did the job undertime and you made 2 days on it, and at a premium rate. Which freed you lads to concentrate on thier jobs be it service, maintenance etc.

Not all subbys start at 9 and finish at 5 on the dot, it's about finding the right subby that works for your company, and WORKS for your company if you understand what I mean!

My wardrobe is full of different company polo shirts, and whatever day or shirt I always promote that company as best I can.
