I'm a kitchen fitter first and foremost, so occasionally encounter old pipes of varying sizes. From past experience I know how easy it is to misidentify old 3/4" copper pipe (apart from getting soaked when you get it wrong) and would like to know if there is a surefire way of telling it from...
Hi. So i gained a technical certificate 6129 at collage 12 years ago. Gave up on the whole idea because i couldn't find a plumber to take me on to do the full nvq. Now my question is does this qualification still count towards an nvq. I now have a plumber friend so could get assesed with him. Or...
I need to do an upgrade urgently before my certificates expire next year, so I can do the NVQ 6089.
