Frequently Asked Questions — Skilled Labourers in London
How quickly can you supply a skilled labourer in London?
In most cases, same-day or next-day across all London boroughs. We maintain a large pool of vetted, available workers — CSCS card holders, general site labourers, groundworkers, and more — who are ready to deploy at short notice. Call us on 020 3740 0201 and we'll give you a straight answer about what's available right now.
What's the difference between a skilled and semi-skilled labourer?
A skilled construction labourer typically holds a CSCS card, has proven experience in a specific area (groundwork, demolition, steel fixing, hod carrying), and can work in regulated construction environments without supervision. A semi-skilled labourer assists trades, carries out general site duties, and may be working towards their CSCS card. We supply both — the right one for your site requirements.
Do your labourers hold CSCS cards?
Yes. All placed workers are checked before deployment, and we can supply both CSCS card-holding labourers and non-CSCS labourers depending on your site's requirements. When you book, just let us know which applies — we'll confirm CSCS status when we confirm the placement.
How much does it cost to hire a labourer through an agency in London?
Pay rates range from £13.50 to £22 per hour depending on the role and skill level. An agency margin is added on top — this covers our compliance, payroll administration, and worker support. We're transparent about costs. Call us for a quote with no obligation.
Are there cash in hand labourer jobs available in London?
Let's be honest — we understand why people ask, but we only run legitimate PAYE placements. This isn't about being difficult; it's because PAYE actually protects you. You get full holiday pay rights, your National Insurance is paid, and you can prove your earnings if you ever need to. Workers placed through Quick Placement are better off on PAYE than under informal arrangements.
Can I find labourer work with an immediate start in London?
Yes. Register on our site, we run a quick compliance check (usually takes less than a day), and then we match you to live vacancies. Many of our immediate start labourer jobs London-wide can have you working within 24–48 hours of registering. Browse current vacancies here.
What areas of London do you cover for labourer supply?
All 32 London boroughs plus the City of London. That's Central, East, South, North, West and Greater London — from the City to Croydon, from Barking to Ealing. There's no area of London we won't cover for labourer supply.
Do you supply labourers for one-off days or only longer contracts?
Both. Single day bookings, week-long placements, monthly contracts, and temp-to-perm arrangements — we handle all of these. If you need someone for one morning to clear a site, we can do that. If you need a groundworker for six months on a civils contract, we can do that too.
How is Quick Placement different from other labourer agencies in London?
Speed and compliance, mainly. We don't just have CVs on file — we have workers who are already vetted, CSCS checked, and right-to-work verified. Our 24/7 helpline (+44 333 188 0008) means when a site manager calls at 7am needing bodies by 9, we answer. And we have the local knowledge to make it happen. Find out more about why clients choose us.
How do I post a job for a labourer in London?
Simple. Head to our post a job page and fill in the details — it takes a few minutes. Alternatively, call us on 020 3740 0201 and we'll take the brief over the phone and handle everything from there.
