Plumbing Buissness

[rblatch]

Hello guys,

I'm 16 and want to open my own plumbing buissness when i have completed the apprentiship at college. I have a few questions:

How do i become CORGI Resgisted?
Is it best to also train for Electrical Installer?
What types of Forms do i need? (For Gas Installing etc...)
Where is the best place to train to become a gas fitter (Live up north)

PS. Has anyone here had a buissness grant to start there Plumbing Buissness?

Thanks Guys

Woah there boy, one step at a time. Do your college stuff, get in with a plumbing firm and get stuck in, pick everyones brains as you go. Then, and only then, think about setting up on your own.How many householders are going to let a 17 yr old loose on their boiler. Experience is everything so get some under your belt.
Good luck and welcome to the forum

get 10 yrs under your belt(including and apprenticeship) then look at starting!!
Seriously thats what it takes to be a GOOD plumber not just some guy with city and guilds.


Then do everything detailed at E-Myth Worldwide

you can't judge everyone by your own standards, some are a natural and some never get the hang in their whole career.
