I own a roofing company, and I pay my roofers £15 an hour,
and I have no trouble whatsoever getting good workmen for
that rate!

but how much do you charge your clients for labour, overheads and profit?

What makes that any of your business?

Because you said:

"There's no need to be nasty to Kate, she is quite right to
question the fact that someone is charging £25 an hour!

I own a roofing company, and I pay my roofers £15 an hour,

the self employed gardener has overheads and direct costs to cover, plus
holiday time etc.

Comparing what you pay your workers in not the correct number to compare to
the charge to the gardener's customer.

Do I guess you charge significantly more than the £15 you pay your guys?
