These times come and go, every business i talk to is down in £££££££ at the moment, down to consumer insecurity, i have been self employed for 22 years now and seen it before many times, things will get better, just got to ride with the econemy at the moment and be ready when the upturn comes as when people get the confidence back they all start spending like crazy
Regards
Darren

Paul (Martin), did you do the 4 or 8 day course? Just wondering, as this is the 1st course i've seen to offer a pro level in 4 days. Most seem to want you there for 2-4 weeks, and your entire savings!

Thats great for you paul im glad things are working out for you, i ve been looking at Nett and chase again and reading all the advice up and down the forum im still saving the cash at the moment and working o/t to get my money together to go,

Im not short on graft whatsoever but nervous about spending all the cash and missing out on important info as its so intense and fast paced in such a short period of time (4days,Nett) will i keep up enough !!!, lol

Probably a silly question, but..... With these courses is there any written material that you can keep for reference?

You will leave our course with about 50, A4 pages of bullet point info to back up everything that has been discussed on the course and you will have my private home email for anything you need to clarify on the course or advice needed in the future
Regards
Darren

In addition to the above,if you pay attention to what Darren is telling you thenyou will leave a very competent tiler.You will actually wonder what you are fussing about.The hardest thing is learning about substrates and the different adhesives...so read up on this now to give you a head start and Darren will take care of the practical side of things.(ADHESIVES AND SUBSTRATE ARE COVERED ON THE COURSE,But this will give you a better understanding of things)

Hi Beanz,

I did complete 8 days in all, the additonal 3 days consists of intensive practical work, testing you in very difficult senarios, if you can get through this you can tile " owt " when I first saw what Darren and the team had in store - I very nearly turned around and walked out - But I stayed and learned a hell of a lot, it was really worth the xtra and gave me the xtra confidence to go out and tile.

cheers,
PM

Hi Paul,

By the time you want to do the additional courses , you to will have completed the 4 day course so the answer is YES.
