Hi and welcome....

Hi & welcome to TF. It's not really the best time of year to start up but wish you all the best on your new venture. I'm sure you will find all the information you need right here regarding all types of perpetration & tiling

Do the course, and then try to get in with an established tiler/bathroom fitter maybe. As someone that did a five day course 3 or 4 years ago (I foget now lol!), you will NOT be ready for the real world. You'll learn the basics, and in some cases, you'll have a better grounding than some of the "time served" guys, but you won't learn how to deal with all the situations you find in the real world. That's something you can only learn with time unfortunately. That said, this forum is a great resourse, and you can always ask questions here..

hi steve , why tiling is it a trade you see yourself doing long term?

 

[steve80]

if i can make a go of it yes

Do the tiling course first, and then afterwards you will have 100's of questions and ideas to ask about and research. Then take it from there....

but 2.5 sentences in 3 posts, doesn't indicate too much determination/desire/interest to me
