If he has to do any work on an hourly rate he charges $35 p/h which is about average. |

Hi,
Hubby is a chippy when he was on the books he got 25 dollars an hour, self employed he can get between 30 -40 dollars an hour. He also works local. Which is good money for the coast. |

now while were on teh subject - anyone know the wage for commercial floor layers/finishers? Floor Layers! As a matter of fact, yes, while on our reccie last April, we stayed in a Motel in Kangaroo Point, and a family had just started their new life and had in fact found work in a town called Carendale, just north of Brisbane. After negotiation, a very long interview and all the proof of qualification and experience, the company arrived at a figure of AU$100,000 a year, which was less than he was paid in Portsmouth for the same job, but enough for his family. |

Possom,
I understand where you are coming from but please, try not to compare to U.K wages. it does not work like that. Hubby was on that in pounds in the U.K Salaries are all relative, to cost of living and lifestyle to compare to the U.K as many do on this forum, makes no sense. Wait till you are here. The Coast doesn't pay well at all, but 25 - 30 dollars is a reasonable wage. |

However, when I worked it out in terms of average wage etc, I'm actually better off. Its not just as simple as converting using the exchange rate, you need to take into consideration how much the lifestyle costs in dollars, while earning dollars :) |
