hi can anyone help? i have been a qualified plumber for a year but find it impossible to find work as not got the experience. can anyone offer me experience or need any free help to get the experience? Near Corby Nprthamptonshire.
 
How far are you willing to travel? I'm just on the border of Oxfordshire. Are you looking for work full time or just to tag a long and get experience.
 
hi i am willing to do either, anything to get the experience. I dont mind travel but dont want to be out of pocket too much with fuel ect. If you can message me a rough postcode i can work out fuel and travel times? that would be great.

Just do small jobs to gain confidence, change taps, fix leaks under sinks etc. You can't go far wrong IMO and then progress to float valves, fix toilets etc., just go slow & charge enough.

What are you confident in doing? Start there, once you do it once you'll be sorted. I was the same, no confidence, sometimes didn't know what to do, couple of good people here have helped & shown me a few bit I'd never have known about. It's all about confidence & time to gain experience.

You gotta start somewhere but get Insurance just incase.

Good luck

Blimey, you are over qualified. You seem to have covered all areas going. If you can get a company to take you on, then in about 6 months time, they will be making money out of you.
GOOD LUCK with the search
