Hi Leanne,
I'm not a
tiler .... yet, but hoping to become one soon. I did a three week tiling course as part of a construction course last year and got hooked. My classmates were all male and the average age was about 16 ( I was older than most of their mothers!!!). It was a pretty basic course and pretty slow-moving, but gave me enough confidence to fully tile a family-members cloakroom. I'm now looking for a more advanced course (currently looking at UK Tiling as it's closer to home) as I've offered my services to a friend who is currently renovating a house. Like yourself, I'll also be looking for help and advice from this forum.
All the best in your search for an employer.
