Two more fantastic 5 star YTA reviews

We love hearing your reviews once you’ve completed your YTA course wether its a 5 day DIY course or a multi-skill course covering tiling, plastering and plumbing over several weeks.

Two recent fantastic 5 star reviews below from students who have both completed a few courses and wanted to share their experience at YTA Training and Assessment.

Justin Jones – Completed 10 day plumbing, 10 day tiling and 5 day kitchen fitting course.

I’ve now completed 3 different course with YTA (10 day Plumbing, 10 day tiling and 5 day kitchen fitting) and I’ve got to say the experiences on each course have been fantastic. In each course all tools and materials are provided, allowing you with the expert tuition provided, the ability to build up your skill set on the different subjects undertaken. Each tutor I have dealt with are highly knowledgeable in their own field and provide a wealth of insight in how to best achieve a finished job in the best way. Each of the tutors taught in a light hearted and jovial manner, but always remained professional, making the courses not only educational but also enjoyable. A bonus for me was that for the tiling and plumbing course YTA provided a pack that could be printed out containing all the information about the work I’d undertaken on each course, along with details how to set up your own business, quote for jobs etc. This meant I could use my time on site doing the practical work but then having a reference guide I could use once the course was finished. The premises where the course are held are ideal as you are provided with you own individual area to work on.

Adam Rouke – Completed Tiling, plastering and plumbing courses.

The training far exceeded my best expectations. I feel able to take on work in the real world safe in the knowledge that I have been given a sound, hands on grounding. The approach used by the staff is one of realism and draws from a body of experience gained over decades. I cannot thank the guys enough for everything. I may well be back for more in the future.

Thank you for the 5 star reviews Justin and Adam, they really are fantastic and we love reading all your reviews when they come in.

Fantastic 5 star reviews following recent YTA course

Course information updated October 2026: This older article records activity at the time. Electrical courses and beginner bricklaying courses are no longer offered. See current YTA courses for available training.

We love reading your YTA training course reviews and these two latest ones are no exception. Thank you.

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!

I did the 5 day plumbing course which l believe is beneficial to anyone who wants to improve their skills & knowledge in domestic plumbing. The teachers are brilliant and I’m going back to try some other courses

5 star reviews just keep coming in for YTA

5 star reviews for YTA just keep coming in! We absolutely love reading your reviews following the courses, please keep sending them in to us. Below we have 2 lovely reviews from recent students after completing a few courses with us.

Mark Readymartcher – completed 10 day plumbing course and 5 day kitchen fitting course = 5 star review!

If you are a property developer or looking for a new skill this place is 5 stars. I searched the UK for somewhere that could do courses to help me with my property developing and found YTA. I looked at the reviews on here and FB and took the leap…so glad I did!! I’m 45 and having previously worked in offices and no real experience with plumbing or kitchen fitting both these courses were great! The tutors are all time served professionals, friendly, down to earth and you can tell they really enjoy teaching the trade. The 10 day plumbing course has given my a level of confidence to tackle fitting a bathroom suite, fit and fix radiators and plumb a kitchen. I know how to fix and bend pipes using different methods, understand how a heating system works for both heating and water supply’s, and how waste pipes work all the way to the drains. The 5 day kitchen fitting course was insightful and I feel confident to fit the basic kitchen units correctly. I now know how to use a router correctly and cut worktops to fit using male and female joints, and cut out the cooker and sink areas. You also get advice and tips on how to overcome obstacles. I can’t thank these guys enough and having booked 3 weeks worth of courses I got a free week to choose an additional course. I will be back there very soon

Anonymous – 1 day plumbing course = 5 star review!

Did the 1 day plumbing taster as I’d never done plumbing before and wanted to know how to fix leaks and tackle basic problems around the house without calling and paying for a plumber. The guys at YTA were very friendly and got us working with materials straight away. Lyndon was a great and patient instructor throughout and made sure to tailor the exercises to ensure they were relevant to what I wanted and that I got the most out of my day with them. Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting to improve their DIY skills.

 

At YTA we are very proud of the hundreds of consistent excellent reviews we receive every month from all our courses. If you are looking for a reputable construction training centre to deliver a variety of trades from plumbing courses to plastering courses then you will not be disappointed with YTA. Why not pop in for a brew and we can show you how we do things and have a chat about a suitable course for yourself!

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
