Training
That’s right, not only do we offer a top notch plumbing service, we also train the best plumbers in the country!
Our CETA Accredited Skills Programme is focused on getting our learners work-ready and to get them out there and earning an income. Extensive attention is given to teaching the students how to work out pricing and quotations. They’ll also be working with an actual water supply, unlike all our competitors out there that work dry – go figure!
Our facilitator is an accredited training assessor and a master in the field of plumbing. With more than 16 years worth of experience in training, this is the person you would want to be trained up with in your trade.
