hi everyone, think we would like to move towards the fuengirola/ marbella end of the cds, i am a wall and floor tiler by trade, thinking of starting my own little company in this field, what do you all think about this?

If you can actually tile in a straight line, use grout that doesnt fall out and not leave residue on the tile, then you will be sorely in demand!

There are hundreds of all kinda quality, same rules as the UK, good and bad.

And then there`s the Spanish to compete with and the South Americans,Germans, Swedes and Norweigns plus the Romanians, polish and Russions.

One plan you`ll also need to concider is once you`ve commited to Spain, what will happen when things go quiet.

You won`t be able to work extra hours in Asda`s or have the wife work.

Working in Spain means that if things go slack, and they will, your options are far more limited than in the UK.

Plus Spain is more of a plan for today, tomorrow could change.Long term plans very rarely succeed.

ok thats something to think about, what we wanna do is live within the ex pat community, firstly doing small jobs for people at a competitive rate, or, possibly sub contracting to a building firm.... is their anybody out there which might own a company, who might have vacancies in the near future?:
