2 Week City & Guilds Professional Bathroom Fitting Course

   

This course will allow you to be professionally qualified in designing and installing domestic sanitary equipment, namely domestic bathrooms.
It includes two recognised City & Guilds professional qualifications and consists of two 1 week modules which are detailed below.

These can be attended at your convenience and not necessarily attended on consecutive weeks, so you can attend the course when it suits you.

This course is ideal for somebody who is interested in a career in plumbing but do not want to commit to full plumbing course at this stage. However, you will still be able to work professionally and carry out lucrative bathroom installation work.

It is also ideal for those wanting to learn basic plumbing skills and be able to fit bathrooms, work with copper tubing and replace their existing bathroom to a professional standard. In this case, the chance to plan and fit a new bathroom will probably be a rare experience for most people.

Replacing a bathroom provides an opportunity to rectify fundamental problems in the design, layout or even the type of materials and equipment installed. To fit your own bathroom to your own design is the ultimate achievement for the D-I-Y enthusiast or property developer and it could also ultimately lead to you fitting bathrooms professionally.

Programme Details:
The course is tailored for the absolute novice, bringing you up to a standard that will enable you to confidently fit a bathroom. It also provides you with the knowledge and skills to plan, project manage and install your own bathroom at a fraction of the price charged by a third party installer.

During the design session you will be introduced to the design process; where you can place your suite due to restrictions on waste outlets and water supplies and how to design the ideal bathroom layout to provide the best and most economic use of the space. The positioning of plumbing and electric services plays an important part in the design of your bathroom. You will also be taught how to safely and efficiently decommission the old bathroom.
