As Shaun says, which part of Wales do you live? Do you drive and have a clean license? Where do you want to take your career in the future? Gas, Oil, Water only etc?

Mark.

i live in the vale of glamorgan ,i do i also have a clean licence and as far as direction goes the more i can learn the better i think

 

[Cath88]

If she`s anything like Togs then she will give as good as she gets. lol

a bit of banter is all good lol , and as far as bikini's go they dont float my boat im more shorts and t shirt

 

[markadams]

You are a bit far away from me but if I get anything your way I may be able to offer a little free work experience if that is of any interest. what is your availability like as it may be short notice.

 

[lame plumber]

good luck

don't worry too much about the physical side, with this game its your head that counts 90% of the time

the other 10% you can always get someone to lend a hand !!!

my little suggestion would be to market yourself to firms as you're happy to specialise in boiler services and repairs.

sharp learning curve to that and patience is key!
too many firms make their bread and butter on installs
they fail to capitalise if they offer the servicing and repairs as the jam ontop, they would bring in twice as much !!!

to get your foot in the door offer to work odd days for free to get experiance before they commit, its quite a daunting thing taking a trainee on, particularly an older one who will potentially be hard to mould

again, good luck !!!

will you stop giving away the best kept secrets of plumbing and heating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you know full well i could scream it into the face of 80% of people and they still wouldn't listen XD

 

[oz-plumber]

Cath,

I wish you all the best in your endeavours.

If you can, head down the service side of things. It far easier on the body, generally more challenging and it pays far better than doing volume construction work.
( in most cases )

But saying that, get your foot in the door wherever you can.

 

[Cath88]

cant thank you all enough for the advice its very much appreciated
