is there work for builders in perth?

[dan chippy]

Hi I am looking to move to Perth with my wife and 2 year old daughter. I am a carpenter joiner and currently run my own building firm in the UK. My main concern, aside from leaving my family, is finding work and wages. Can anyone shed any light on this issue, i have heard that there is a shortage of trades in australia in general but would really like some more detailed advice on this and living in Perth in general.

Thanks Dan

Hi Dan
I am also a Joiner and although i am not going to Perth myself I have looked into it there is a boom in W/A and work will not be a problem.

good luck
