Plumbing training

Learn the trade from a certified plumber

Hands-on apprenticeship on live sites: pipe sizing, jointing, fall and venting, fixture installation and maintenance. Trainees work towards trade-test and NSQ certification — the same path our CEO took.

On real jobs

Not a classroom. A site.

Trainees learn alongside a working crew, on the same jobs we're paid to do: new builds, bathroom fit-outs, repairs and maintenance. Every skill is practised until it's done right without thinking.

What you'll learn

The full trade, end to end

01

Pipe sizing

Reading demand and choosing the right diameter and class for supply and waste.

02

Jointing

Solvent-weld, PPR fusion, threaded and compression joints, done until they're second nature.

03

Fall & venting

Gradients, traps and vent stacks: why drains run, and why they smell when they don't.

04

Fixture installation

WCs, basins, showers and heaters set level, sealed and finished to the tiling.

05

Pumps & tanks

Sizing, mounting and plumbing pumps and reservoirs for steady pressure.

06

Maintenance

Diagnosing leaks, blockages and pressure problems on real call-outs.
