to cut me story short i have done plumbing for on off 2-3 years doing bathrooms radiators , taps , drainage,stacks the usuall stuff and feel now that i want to move onto more complex stuff , boilers . fires, services and i am looking for someone that would be willing for me to go with them tue/weds and every other weekends to get more experience gas side so i can continue my quals ,i have a wras cirt , have also done a Grant installers ashp (air source heat pump) course im really good at problem solving and usually have a good idea on boiler fixes but i want to go about doing things the right way .

Im 36 have a full drivers licence and willing to do anythink i have some knowledge of unvented boilers, heating systems but dont feel i have enough to do my acs ect

Any ideas please reply on here where i really would be most greatfull

Thnx Sparra i going to try that aswell ,more places i try more chance i got of getting somewhere thts what i thought i got plenty of building experience as well and just thought id try me luck i am going to phone gas fitters as well in the week so hopefully i will get somewhere its a hard game to get into aint it , would be nice to get a full time job with a gas installer but we can dream cant we lol :) ill keep trying
 
ye a bit far from me ,but defo think you,ll get somewere ,theres plenty of work about if your on your own just not enough to take someone on and all that goes with it,when i done mine a few yrs ago i had loads who said they would help best mates etc untill it come to it full of promises so i rung round and after about a month one bloke said yes he got work and so did i all worked out well so there are people mate just keep pluggin
