We train all of our tilers in the most realistic conditions possible which is why every bathroom and Kitchen bay is designed to test your metal! Every bay includes box sections for pipe work, angles and other realistic settings such as uneven walls, slanted baths etc and even come with spotlight fitted ceilings to highlight bad grouting and potential shadowing! Brand new bathrooms AND Kitchens are also fitted and we will be expecting them to stay just like that! We make sure that all trainees treat there areas as if they were in a customers premises so dust sheets and a need for cleanliness is always important. |
