I'm a female property investor constantly forking out for small plumbing repairs - so wanted to learn to do it myself. It makes financial sense to pay someone to do the work for me. However - because I need to turn up at a property when there is an issue - it makes sense I fix it while I'm there because most times it will be something very simple (but I didn't know how to fix these issues.... Until now!) I was worried about being the only girl, but felt instantly relaxed. Lyndon was a great teacher and good laugh. On the 5 day intensive plumbing course I learned how to fit pipes using soldering and compression fittings, plumb a full bathroom (fitting the pipes through the entire bathroom, plumbing in all taps, putting the toilet together etc), fit radiators, fit a kitchen sink with plumbing (including T-ing off for a washing machine and an outside tap). I've learned a few jobs tradesmen have done for me were nonsense - so now I'm much wiser to what is required (and can do it myself). The biggest surprise was how easy repairing a toilet is. Parts are usually around £10 (£20 max) and they screw in so why waste money having someone come fix it? As soon as I got home I fixed a few issues that had been bugging me for months. I may return to do joinery or learn to fit worktops next. Thanks YTA!

Many thanks for a lovely review Katy, We are glad you enjoyed the plumbing course and already put your skills to good use round your home. Looks like we may see you on the carpentry & joinery course too!
Brilliant Guys, taught the course well, and we had plenty of fun!

Excellent course and great instructor. Would highly recommend. I came from Scotland to attend the course as it was the only plumbing course in the UK that was offering what I needed. Barely any classroom work

Very much enjoyed the course, 20 mins in on the first day and we were using the hand tools to make different joints. The speed was good moving onto the next step as soon as we were ready. Matt was very knowledgeable, sharing his expertise and experience with customers in his trade. Felt fully competent by the end of the 5 days teaching.

The plumbing course was brilliant, Paul was an outstanding instructor and made everyone feel relaxed and welcome, Will be going back in the future for a Tiliing course.

An excellent course, great instruction from Dave and a good range of skills taught and a decent sized bay to learn how to plaster walls and a ceiling. I spent some time looking on the internet for a suitable course and am very pleased I came to Bradford from Wiltshire (I stayed at a reasonable travel lodge down the road). I’ve subsequently plastered a few rooms at home. The course has given me the confidence to do this and I’m very happy with the results. I bought an orbital sander to remove any small marks but I’m definitely getting better with more practice.

Great staff. Very helpful and knowledgeable and willing to answer all your questions to develop your skills in the real world/ in a job setting

I can't speak highly enough of this course and the people that teach here, we are a small family business that continued to be let down by plasterers. After completing the 2 weeks course at YTA we now have eliminated a massive issue for our business but equally offered our customers top quality plastering thanks to the YTA team. I learned every aspect of plastering in detail and at the end of the course I left with great confidence on walking in to most rooms being able to complete the job. Thank you to the YTA team and in particular Dave who was brilliant all the way through.

Really good introduction to plastering with loads of practical experience and knowledge that will provide a solid foundation to build on and improve plastering ability

The 5 day plumbing course was excellent value. Made even better by Paul’s sense of humour! Not only have I saved a fortune doing work at home, I’ve also been earning nicely fitting bathrooms and kitchens. Thanks for everything Paul and YTA!

I completed the 10 day NOCN level 1 wall and floor tiling course. My teacher was Dave who was first class throughout. Extremely patient with clear and concise instructions to help me gain valuable knowledge and skills that has helped me kickstart my tiling career. Thanks Dave

I have just completed the 2 day kitchen tiling course and will 100% be coming back to do more courses. I knew nothing about tiling and it's amazing what you learn in a short amount of time. Tutors were great and very helpful. They have a wide range of courses, something for everyone.

I attended joinery, plumbing, kitchen fitting and the plastering course. Paul, David and Nathan were great in explaining the course material and practical aspects. I have recommended all the courses to people when asked. Tell them all to keep up the good work. I might come and do the tiling at some point. Thanks. Ady

I finished my 5 day multi trade course today and what an experience it was, i went into this course not knowing a thing about plastering and tileing and can confidently say i cant wait to start applying what ive learn from these guys, dave is an absolute legend he has helped me so much through this course and made it simple and easy to learn the basics of these trades, paul and hayden are top blokes as well, id highly recommend anyone to give these courses a try or at least check these guys out online it WILL save you money learning these basics, they also do more in depth courses not only for beginners like me but but for people who have also been in the trade a long time, thanks again guys, already thinking about comeing back to do the plumbing course with paul

Completed my 10 day tiling course, i was a complete beginner and left feeling very confident in being able to tile in the real world. Dave the instructor is a class above any one else when it comes to teaching and helping wherever possible, his knowledge of the trade is second to none. I would highly recommend YTA very friendly workplace. Thanks again.

Took the 1 day EWPA in joinery. Mark was fantastic. Even though I have 20 years experience was still very nervous and he made me feel at ease. Hes really knowledgeable and very helpful. His humour helped to keep me at ease. I would recommend taking this course here to anyone. Fantastic place, all really helpful. Thanks

I did the 5 day intensive plumbing course run by Paul. I travelled up from Bristol to stay for the week so I could attend the course as this kind of course could only be found at YTA; and I must say it was worth every penny and more! The course was exactly as described on the website with everyday being centred around a plumbing project such as you may encounter around the home (bathroom, kitchen, radiators etc) but the most important part was the teaching and knowledge that came with this. All aspects of HOW and WHY were covered such that a person (like myself) with zero plumbing knowledge can understand how the different plumbing elements around the home work, and why they are installed in the manner they are. Paul covered a massive area of knowledge for me in such a short space of time leaving me with a great amount of confidence in my ability to tackle any plumbing job - which I have already put into use. Cannot recommend this training facility enough, the amount of knowledge you'll be walking away with by the end of the week is a bargain. I may well be back for another course in a different area.

I did a 10 day plumbing course paul the instructor was amazing very patient and helpful when I wasn't sure about things, I even phoned for advice after my course had finished and paul was really helpful and gave me some pointers, I would recommend YTA for anyone that's interested in doing a course, as you gain valuable knowledge, thank you to paul and the rest of the instructors for making my time there a joy to learn.
