Hi, I found out I can't do the NVQ2 up skills from 6128 I did in 2011, The minimum is 6129. I heard the only difference is lead roofing module, does anyone know if it's possible to do a module instead of a whole new coarse. Thanks

the majority of plumbers on here seem to have a real issue with 6129's as you so put it just coz we splashed the cash and skipped all the boring rubbish we are assumed stupid if you think doing a year course equals a 6129 then why not as said in my previous thread with the market the way it is...

I went to tile a bathroom and it was a floor to ceiling job. New Sink, bath, and loo had already been installed.
Problem was I had to adjust the sink and bath to level??
Plumber must have forgot his level!:D
Whilst on the subject of tubs I'm fitting a whirlpool tomorrow. Should be fun!
I am coming to the end of my 6128 course and was wondering what clubs I need to join to be able to actually work as it seems I can't fart without having to get someone out to certify it. Here is a list of qualifications I will hopefully get:

Hi All,
This is a quote from the TES website
"Do we really have a demand-led system? What percentage of the statistics above could be down to supply-led initiatives by colleges? - for example, 48,000 did a technical certificate in plumbing in 2007. These plumbing courses are marketed by...
