finally booked the date of my plumbing course which is local to me i did a plastering course with them and i enjoyed it ive got 2 possible bathroom re fits so thats why ive pulled my finger out and decided to get it done. Its a 4 day course anyone around north west who is interested in the course i will give some feedback once completed

ive had to shift a weeks work till the following week but it will be worth it ive now got a bit of work coming through and booked about 3-4 weeks been doing a few quotes so hopefully more work will follow yipee

hi Lee good luck with the course but just remember not to bite off more than you can chew when it comes to doing a full refit...many issues to take into account such as soil pipe adapts,pipe sizes(reducers,different kinds of pipe ..etc)its not just plain sailing as i found out after doing my bathroom course...so just a word of warning.....i hate microbore ...hate it.


all the best pal,im sure you can handle it.

Good luck with the course mate,i`m presuming its the very basics if its a 4 day course.

 

[LM Ceramics]

yes it will be the basics as long as i learn bathroom fitting and bits a bobs of plumbing then im happy at that

Same here Lee. Get yourself down to B&Q or similar and get familiar with all the different fittings.

or a good plumbing supplies book ie;BES or similar

Good luck !
Personally haven't got the guts to have a go at plumbing, my only plumbing tools are a bucket and a load of towels. Also I get a lot of work from plumbers, works well, they do plumbing and vice a versa.
