I supervise our installers and Service technicians for our area, and we also have 3-6 contractors at any given time. I can tell you that the invoices for contractors on average is $900-$1300 dollars a week. Like mentioned above, after all expenses you can plan on $800-$1000 a week. Gas and insurance being the largest. Usually a pretty substanial insurance policy is required(but affordable). Basic install tools would be required. You most likely have a ladder, and belt and if you have a meter probably under $100 dollars would get you going. If at all possible and available in you area, LEARN HOW TO DO BROADBAND INSTALLS. Obviously you know your way around on a computer, and these are such easy money. I know my contractors would just about paint my house as long as I throw these jobs their way. If you do good work and get along well with customers you could have a long gig in your area. Good, responsible contractors that do not cut corners are hard to find, and when you do you keep them around for a long time. Good luck.
