If you have the necessary skills then how about starting with an ad in
the local paper?

You may find it an advantage to use the spell checker option in your posts plus make sure any adverts you submit are spelt correctly.
I am not being picky here but it is a fact that many potential customers expect their contractor to be able to spell and add up correctly.There are plenty of systems to enable you to do this.
Not doing this basic background work means you are missing potential opportunities.

Approach MFI or B&Q to see what they require. I think their fitters do
quite well on the "extras" i.e. they get a flat fee for the installation
but can negotiate their own price for tiling, electrics, plumbing etc.
Once you get a relationship going with a Corgi and a sparks to ok your
work, it's probably a good source of regular business
