Why Are Tradespeople Leaving Their Businesses Behind?

The Roofing Show

Sunday, 5 April 2026 - 22 minutes

Danny Madden looks into a bit of a recent trend where accomplished trade based business owners are choosing to park their business and get into sub-contracting or employed roles with other businesses. Danny talks to George McKechnie about his recent shift in working circumstances and what the benefits have been so far. Dean Saxton explains how moving the family to Cornwall from Nottingham has meant he's had to leave his business there behind and how he's changed the way he works in a new part of the country. Danny also ponders whether he would change how he works or leave his family run business behind.
