5 Day Plumbing & Bathroom Fitting Course

The best way to learn plumbing skills is to practice, practice, practice. This course, as with all our training courses, is intensive and aimed at providing you with as much quality training as possible in the time you are at the centre, therefore you will spend every hour of every day learning and practicing.

This course has an excellent mix of practical training and supporting knowledge training, as it is one thing learning how to practially complete plumbing work in the domestic market but it is another thing knowing the related theory so that you complete the work with no problems and no call backs due to poor work due to poor knowledge. Saying that though you will fit at least two full bathroom suites during the week as well as other practical exercises.

There are no more than 10 people on a course at any one time and each person will have their own training bay, tools and materials.
