FAQ

Questions, answered

Everything you need to know before booking a practical plumbing course with us.

Do I need experience?

No. The courses are designed for beginners and practical learners. You’ll be guided through every task and given plenty of supervised practice.

Is this a course to become a plumber?

No. It is DIY plumbing training to build practical confidence at home. It is not a trade qualification.

How many students are on each course?

A maximum of four students, so you get meaningful time on the tools and direct support throughout.

Is soldering included in the 2-day course?

Not normally. Soldering is taught on the dedicated 1-Day Soldering Course or as part of the 3-Day Complete Plumbing Course.

Can I book as a gift?

Yes. Course gift cards are available — choose the amount in the checkout and pass it on.

Where are the courses held?

At our dedicated Deeside training centre (Deeside Enterprise Centre, Rowleys Drive, Shotton, Flintshire CH5 1PP). See the Venue page for travel details.

Can I secure my place with a deposit?

Yes. A £150 deposit option is available for the 3-Day, 5-Day and 8-Day courses to secure your dates.

What should I bring?

Just yourself. All tools and materials are provided.

How do I book?

Use the checkout buttons on the course pages to book securely online, or message us on WhatsApp to check dates and availability first.
