Looking for work ,i have done pipe runs in copper and fitted baths and sinks etc...Happy to learn more if you want to show me the way..Very reliable and have experience.Thanks for any help in advance,looking to brighten up my New Year.
 
As are loads of lads, but they at least post their location more accurately as its bad enough getting an apprentice to turn up who lives 1/2 a mile away
 
If your still looking for work. We have site work in Essex and Suffolk area.
Please call Sandamoss on 01621 854804.
 
If you have done pipe runs and fitted baths etc why dont you try advertising for basic work....i.e. changing taps, fitting sinks or toilets etc. You say you have some knowledge the only way you can really learn is to get stuck in and have a go. Il say this it wont come to you you need to get out there and do it. Good Luck

Well that's an easy un learning curve, forget all you know and have no standards , but be in house by 1409 every day and 11.30 on a Friday
 
working with plastic is far easier than copper.

pipe
don't kink it
clip everything as much as you can or just throw it in and leave it to lay there

fittings !!!!

push fit
cut pipe and push into fitting

press fit
cut pipe, push in fitting, put crimp tool on fitting, press button

uponor q&e
cut pipe, deburr, put on collar, put expander in, press button, wait for 6 cranks, pull out, push fitting into pipe, hold for 20 seconds in place


masterclass in plastic right there
 
Cut straight, remember the inserts and use the same manufacturers fittings on their pipe... job done ;)
 
Don't forget to lube up the male end......if it's dry you may tear the rubber (o ring)

if your ok with copper you will be a pro at plastic, its the easiest method of plumbing push fit instead of solder blah blah blah

i hate plastic but its the easiest
 
Do you have a CSCS card and a bit of commercial site experience?
 
That's okay. Would be worth doing your cscs and get on with an agency though?
