Hello all,
I am considering becoming a tiler. I have been developing propertys but want to take a rest from that for a while, its every bit as hard as people say - and then some!
So in short:
What do I require to become a tiler? I have investigated courses, and found one I would like to attend. However I am in a minefield about qualifications, do I need an nvq to be a tiler? I have done several kitchens in ceramics, and a couple of bathrooms in porcelain. So I can lay tiles, and I am pretty confident in my skills, but I want to take the course anyway, so I have as much knowledge as possible. The course is at North East Tiler Training in South Sheilds, Tyne and Wear. Does anyone know them, and are they a good outfit?
I am also interested in getting out and about and doing some site work. Will I need a nvq for that? I know I will need a CSCS card. So if anyone has some of this information I would be very grateful indeed, or even a Newbie link of some sort with a section on most asked questions or something. I have had a good scan about, but dont seem to be able to get good answers to basic questions, maybe I am just going about it the wrong way:sad_smile: .
Thanks in advance, and sorry for the long post.
