Hello lbrad02, By your posts you sound desperate, are you working ?? As you must be awere their are a lot of more experienced guys looking for work ! You know that you can-not just do your acs then be gas safe, its not that easey, anything to do with the building trade is not the best choice for employment at this moment in time, But good luck with your quest !!

 

[lbrad02]

yes i know all that iam doing a full time job at the min but i want to do plumbing etc full time with some one

 

[hammers4spanner]

What were you doing prior to funding your course??

 

[lbrad02]

building cars in crewe . in a factory then i started doing odd jobs for my friends heating business and got a taste of plumbing and heating and thats the way i wont to go i know you can make good money when the time is right but i also no you can make not a great deal aswell these days but i loved doing that kind of work .

start advertising bathroom fitting and general repairs plastic makes that alot easier , what i will say is the money probably wont come back as you think as in september the plumb colleges will have the influx of newbies plus lack of sites along with apprentices which have passed out this year . In my 20 or so years of doing this i would say i have only evr known a few plumbs to really cream it in most struggle on 20k to 28k a year .

 

[lbrad02]

thanx

I Agree with hammers ! You will get the odd Plumber that always seems to get the top jobs and make top money, but this applys to most trades, The average guy will just make a liveing at it, advantage of being SE you can pick where & when you want to work, but take a long hard look at the costs involved, Would I do the same again if I could `NO` my rewards for doing this job for almost 40 years ! bad back & Knees not meny Holidays forever paying out for one thing or another, Would I work as a Plumber ? maybe but it would be as a employee & let some one else have the worries !!
