just before CNY is a rush. just after it will not be a lull. because quite a number of owners like to do after cny too and then u add those projects that couldn't do any work during cny's 2 or 3 weeks, there's not much of a lull. like the others have mentioned, 7th month is a relatively freer period during the year for us. as for savings due to lull period, i don't think so. it's more dependent on the overall "season" for the industry.
