Redrex says hi.

Morning all, thought I would say hello as I have only just come across this web site....very informative and interesting. I have been contemplating a change in direction for the last 6 months or so and will be arranging visits to a couple of tiling training centres in the coming weeks. One question at this stage if any one can answer,please. Would it be a good idea to also take a basic plumbing course too? Having looked at the pics of finished jobs etc...It seems that a much better finish is achieved if you are able to remove sanitary ware, radiators etc....or do the courses cover this? I am not looking to re-plumb a house! but want to offer a really credible proffessional service if things work out over time.

Hi Redrex - welcome to the forums.

You right about the plumbing. A 1 week course is all you need for this, as it covers the very basics of how to remove / install sanitary ware. Which is all you need.

I went back to college to get my C&G in plumbing, but I also do other plumbing stuff too as well as the tiling.

Good luck

Welcome to the forums mate, it certainly helps the job if you can remove the sanitary ware, but not a necessity.
