Hey guys, just after some advice .
I’m seriously thinking of a career change and tiling is an option I’ve been looking into. Firstly, I’m 35, am I leaving it too late? And secondly, are these 10 day courses that I’ve seen advertised actually worth it?
Any advice, how to get into the industry etc would be most appreciated.
Thanks

Well I'm 36 and start a 11 day course in 2 weeks time. I have a couple of mates of similar age who have done same thing the past year or so and are doing well so it's definitely possible but I'm no expert on the matter!

Nice one! Where are you doing your course and how much did it cost you? I’m seeing courses from £500 up to £2000.
Cheers mate
