Afternoon all
first off nice forum and after nosing around I thought I'd register to ask a few questions
first off I'm 35 years and looking at changing career into plastering but I've a few questions.
uve seen lots of courses advertised as "able to immediately walk into a plastering job" these provide gnvqs , btecs and such but what I really want to find out what is the actual requirements to be able to work as a plasterer on sites (I'm aiming to do this at first before possibly branching out)
also how long should I realistically expect to train (not actual work experience) in a classroom environment before being able to site work.
finally I'm based in London so are there any London based plasterers able to let me know what the job market is like.
many thanks, and apologies for typos as I'm on my phone so not the best for long messages!
