    Hi,

    Was wondering what the utility bills for a salon would be
    electricity, water....anything else

    roughly how much per month would go on utilities?

    I'm based in London but looking to move back to Ireland next year so just getting a business plan together

    if any ones got tips please post them

    thanks

    there are really too many variables here to give you a good answer

    depending on the site of the shop and the heating system the electricity could be €3-400 a month if not more

    water is €2 per 1000 litres

    commercial waste could be around €75 a month

    rates will depend on the size & location of the salon, I know one in an area that wouldnt be the most fashionable suburb of Dublin being charged around €4000 in rates

    You should also watch the nixer culture, my partner was involved in a salon a few years back and this was a constant problem, not helped by the wholesale product suppliers selling product to individuals at close to salon purchase prices.

    It is what is described in this thread

    For a salon the big problems these days are people doing nixers and mobile operators who dont have fixed overheads & are generally below the VAT threshold so can be a lot cheaper
