Default PTS Warrington....

I have looked at lots of different courses over the past few weeks and am nearing my decision as to which I will do.

I have heard lots of good things about the Chase tiling course and also good things about the PTS course in Essex.

I live in Manchester so if I was to do the PTS course it would make sense to do the Warrington one.

Have you done the Warrington course? If so would you recommend it? I am think of doing a 4 weeker as I plan to setup working for myself.

Any feedback would be appreciated!

Gareth

I had a tiler working for me who had done a months course there - wasn't impressed with what they had learned. In my opinion a lot of basics missing - also they seemed to use a number of diff tutors, all teaching diff methods. Trainee left being a bit confused.

Thanks for the input leatherface, I need honest opinions like that as the course is going to cost nearly £2000.

Anyone else have anything to say about this course, good or bad?

I think I have decided to go for the Chase Tiling course, it seems everyone that has done this course is happy with what they got.

As well as quality training there, you will get the chance to enrol straight onto your OSAT NVQ off the back of it.

Good luck pal

Cheers guys!

I don't know how you two got into tiling but if it was similar to the way I am doing it then you will know the feeling of worry at spending £1500 on a course plus getting tools and advertising etc and not know for sure if you will get a return!

But, you have got to be in it to win it!
