Why Choose a Career in Plumbing?

The pipes that make modern living possible need hands capable of keeping them in check. As a result, skilled plumbers are consistently in high demand across Yorkshire and beyond. Here’s why a career in plumbing makes sense:

  • The growing demand for skilled plumbers ensures that you tap into a market with steady work and potential for growth.
  • Job security in the plumbing field is robust, with specialization options increasing your worth and marketability.
  • Considering going solo? Plumbing offers excellent opportunities for self-employment, giving you control over your success.

More Than A Plumbing Course

For many people, learning plumbing is not just about pipes, fittings and tools.

It is about wanting more options.

A plumbing course can be the first serious step towards a more practical future. You may be looking for a career change, a route into self-employment, better property maintenance skills or a way to add plumbing knowledge to another trade.

You will not become an experienced plumber overnight, and no honest training provider should promise that. But you can begin learning real skills, using real tools and building the confidence to move forward.

That is why many students choose practical hands-on training at YTA. It gives them a starting point, a workshop environment and the chance to learn by doing.

5 Day Plumbing Course Or 10 Day Level 1 Plumbing Course?

YTA offers different plumbing course routes depending on your goals.

The 5 Day Intensive Plumbing Course is a strong practical starting point for students who want to learn useful plumbing skills quickly. It is popular with DIY learners, landlords, property developers, career changers and existing tradespeople who want to add plumbing skills.

The 10 Day Level 1 Plumbing Course is usually better for students who want more training time, more practice and the opportunity to work towards a recognised Level 1 qualification.

As a simple guide:

  • Choose the 5 day plumbing course if you want practical plumbing skills for DIY, property maintenance, renovation work or to add plumbing to another trade.
  • Choose the 10 day Level 1 plumbing course if you are serious about career change, self-employment or building a stronger foundation in plumbing.

If you are unsure which route is right for you, read our 5 Day vs 10 Day Plumbing Course guide or contact YTA Training for advice.

  • Our courses are designed to support smooth transitioning from your previous field.
  • We place strong emphasis on career growth and advancement, setting you up not just for a job, but for a lifelong profession.

5 star YTA reviews this week!

We are happy to announce that we’ve received two 5 star YTA reviews this week taking our 5 star reviews tally up to 286! Wow, thank you everyone.

Or first review this week was left by Andy Flanagan who has completed our 10 day level 1 plumbing course. The first week was completed before the lockdown so now he was able to come back and finish off the second week of the plumbing course which covers domestic hot water and heating systems.

I recently did a level one 10 day plumbing course and thoroughly enjoyed it. One day I was plumbing a whole bathroom, next day plumbing radiators. Second week plumbing a whole central heating system. A very hands on and practical teaching course, no sitting in classrooms. Both graham and Lyndon were superb. I’ll be back at some point later this year to do tiling and plastering. Thanks gents.

Andy Flanagan 10 day plumbing course review. 5 star YTA reviews this week

Thank you Andy for the great YTA review.

Our next review came in from Michael Seal who completed the 5 day plumbing course last week.

I recently completed the five-day plumbing course at YTA. Before this course, I had no experience in plumbing whatsoever. I have a few small plumbing jobs to do around the house and recently experienced a leak which is when I realised I have no idea what I’m doing when it comes to plumbing. The YTA was perfect, and it’s hands-on approach means you are bending, cutting and soldering pipes before lunchtime on day one. The rest of the week was spent plumbing bathrooms, radiators, kitchens, outside taps and waste pipes. All the instructors have years of experience as plumbers and share their experiences and tips as you go through the week. I highly recommend this course for anyone that wants a hands-on introduction to plumbing or even think of changing trades and becoming a plumber. I plan on going back later this year to do the carpentry course.

Michael Seal 5 day plumbing course review

Thank you Michael for such a great review, glad you enjoyed the course and we look forward to you possibly coming back for the carpentry and joinery course.

We have enjoyed reading the 5 star YTA reviews this week, keep them coming in!
