Hi

Plumbing and tiling are two good combined trades.


Polish workers I have used are good workers.

 

[Jason88]

Not saying there not but when British people who are honest and hardworking are denied opportunities because they are willing to work for half the wage seems wrong to me
Do they not have plumbing in Poland?

According to my tutor this is the way forward
Is it with considering a walk down this path
best ways to get involved any ideas

You'll struggle with plumbing, unless your super quick with builders work. Ill do in a day what most newbies will do in 3 days. Full heating systems in 3 days max (a lot of plastic) with a cylinder and an S or Y plan, 2 days for a combi. 8 rads max though. My own custards have copper throughout though, but that adds on a couple of days.

I do lead work as well. Builders pay well for that.
