Plumbing course

16th January 2019 By Liz Spider

Don’t look elsewhere for an intensive plumbing course in the UK

We take great pride here at YTA in offering a broad assortment of highly rated, in-depth and competitively priced construction training programmes. Certainly, if you are interested in becoming a plumber, there is many a relevant course that you can undertake at our accredited training centre, including various intensive routes over five or 10 days.

What are your options if you would like to undertake an intensive plumbing programme?

When it comes to investigating the possibilities for an intensive plumbing course in the UK, we don’t think you could choose a much finer starting point than our five-day intensive course. This programme is highly practical in nature to equip you with all of the knowledge and understanding that you need to confidently undertake plumbing jobs in the home or even become a professional plumber for the first time.

You don’t need to have any prior plumbing experience at all to enrol on our five-day course, although many of our students on this programme are tradespersons in other fields, such as tiling, plastering or joinery. By learning how to perform such common plumbing tasks as changing taps, fitting radiators or even replacing an entire bathroom, you can give your prospective customers the attraction of a more comprehensive set of services from a single trusted person.

For a higher price, we can also give you the benefit of a five-day intensive plumbing course in the UK that comes with a nationally recognised qualification, the Level 1 Award in Preparation for Plumbing Operations. This route involves the student being trained and assessed on two units: an introduction to plumbing work and carrying out plumbing operations.

Don’t forget that you can join us for a full 10 days, too

Combining the aforementioned five-day Level 1 intensive plumbing course with our five-day advanced plumbing course, the 10-day Level 1 intensive plumbing course can also lead to a Level 1 Award in Preparation for Plumbing Operations. However, it should be emphasised that the qualification is optional, with the training being the same irrespective of whether you opt for the award.

Our advanced plumbing course can also be taken on its own and takes you through the complete fitting of a domestic hot water storage system, as well as the fitting of a full bathroom suite, including a thermostatic mixer shower. The likes of rainwater guttering, hoppers and drainage are also covered within this course.

Would you like to discuss precisely what you require from an intensive plumbing course in the UK with our team here at YTA, before committing to any of our training routes? If so, you’re welcome to give us a call on 01274 682199 or 07400 922788; alternatively, feel free to send us an email enquiry.

Excellent reviews for Tiling, Plumbing and Kitchen Fitting courses

We’ve had a couple more excellent 5 star reviews left for our tiling, plumbing and kitchen fitting courses completed over the past few weeks. Please see the reviews below:

Daniel Doran has left a 5 star review after completing a few courses at YTA. This year he has completed the 5 day kitchen fitting course, 5 day intensive tiling course and 5 day intensive plumbing course. What is also lovely to hear is he has gone on to complete these jobs in is home saving him a few thousand pounds.

I have now completed the Kitchen fitting 5 day course. Followed by the 5 day tiling and 5 day plumbing course. All I can say is these courses are perfect for any person wanting to acquire great beginner knowledge in these trades. I booked these courses so I could undertake some work on my own property. My new kitchen and new bathroom speaks for itself. Took a little longer to undertake these jobs as I was doing the jobs for the first time and working around my current job, But the money I saved (easily a few thousand £££) more than makes it worth it. Anyone looking to get started in these trades. either for your own DIY work or to even start a career. This is the place to go. The tutors are all really helpful. Even once I finished the course, I still contacted them for more advice and help on ideas. Top quality courses Graham and the tutors provide. more than happy to recommend to everyone.

 

Jeff Farrow completed our 5 day intensive plumbing course and since completing he has already started work and already sent out his first invoice! He goes on to say he will be returning to YTA Training and Assessment for further training in the new year. We look forward to welcoming you back.

Finally decided to get some basic plumbing training after an enforced career change following redundancy in computing. Course was excellent, providing the basics needed to start work as a plumber. Plenty of practical work mixed with some theory and lots of good advice. I have just sent out my first invoice. I plan to do some further training in the new year and will definitely be visiting YTA to do them.

 

If you are considering learning a trade or adding to your existing skills then YTA offer a range of construction courses all taught by experienced ex-tradesmen in a friendly professional environment with small class sizes. To book a course you can either book online or call the centre on 01274682199. YTA is situated in Bradford, West Yorkshire.

A new plumbing course review just published. 5 stars again!

A new plumbing course review has just been published and we have received 5 stars once again!

Gareth only attended the 5 day plumbing course a few weeks back and he goes on to say that he has already made the money back from what he spent on the course!

I attended the one week plumbing course a couple of weeks ago and it provided me with all the knowledge I’d hoped for. Lyndon the instructor had a vast knowledge from his 30+ years experience and he past this on to us in a very easy and relaxed way. He had plenty of time to spend with each of us (only 3 including me) which allowed us to gain more knowledge than you might in a larger group. I have put this knowledge to good use and already made back the money I spent on the course. I can’t recommend this course enough, anyone considering getting in to any trade should contact YTA without delay.

The plumbing course is one of our most popular courses which actually runs every week! We offer a few options from a 5 day course or 10 day course. The option to upgrade to a nationally recognised level 1 plumbing qualification is also available and achievable within the 5 or 10 days. We only have low student to teacher numbers with no more than 6 students at a time on the plumbing courses. We still have a couple of places available for a next week if you are thinking of jumping on a course.

To book we require a £100 deposit, the balance is then due on the first day of the course. For more information please contact the centre on 01274682199 or email info@ytatraining.com

YTA is situated in Bradford, West Yorkshire.

December courses so far are Brickalying, plumbing, tiling and plastering

So far this December we have been teaching bricklaying, plumbing, tiling and plastering. We start again on Monday morning swapping bricklaying for carpentry and joinery. We only have 3 places remaining this year so if you fancy jumping on a last minute course give the centre a call  Monday morning. Below are a selection of photos taken over the past week and a half.

The photographs show a historical training programme. Beginner bricklaying courses are no longer offered. Current plastering courses cover practical skills such as boarding, skimming and repairs; see the current course page for the full programme.

The plumbing course briefly covers plumbing in bathrooms, kitchens and radiators systems as well as fault finding and repair from toilet cisterns to central heating.

The tiling course starts off with you tiling a basic kitchen, then around a window half height with trims to be mitred. Then moving onto tiling a bathrooms shower area above a bath and then tiling a floor with obstacles such as a pedestal to cut tiles around along with a boxing in and doorway architraves.

All our courses are taught by experienced and qualified ex tradesmen with only low students numbers per teacher ratio. YTA is based in Bradford, West Yorkshire and is easily accessible from the M62 motorway. If you would like to book a course you can either call the centre, visit the centre or book using the online booking system at the bottom of your chosen course page.

A couple more 5 star reviews this week!

Course information updated October 2026: The reviews and photographs below describe training at the time of publication. Our five-day practical plumbing course is non-accredited and includes a YTA completion certificate. The ten-day Level 1 plumbing route offers the full Level 1 Award in Preparation for Plumbing Operations, subject to successful assessment. See the current course pages for prices and dates.

A couple more 5 star reviews this week! Two recent reviews following the completion of our 5 day practical plumbing course from two candidates. One review was from a builder with 30 years building industry experience.

I did the 5 day level 1 plumbing course, I’ve been in the building industry for over 30 years and never wanted to tackle anything that involved water.I did the course purely so I could carry out jobs and repairs at home. it was a great week, Lyndon was a great tutor and there was a great group of lads on the course.I learnt loads and really enjoyed the hands on practical work, you had all the tools, equipment and materials to carry out every job that was set out. The course gave me the skills and confidence to carry out a handful of jobs that I had at home which I started the Saturday after the course.All jobs done brilliantly so I’m really happy with what I’ve learned . I will be undertaking another course next year.

 

The 5 day plumbing course was a very good course. Lots of practical tasks and all the staff are very approachable and will help you out with any issues that they can help you with.

Many thanks for all the reviews. Keep them coming please!
