Excellent Multiple Courses YTA Review.

We have received an excellent multiple courses YTA review from an ex student after completing several courses. Nigel completed Tiling, Carpentry, Plumbing, Plastering, Bricklaying and Kitchen Fitting courses at YTA over several weeks and has since completed various projects including installing 3 bathrooms whilst renovating his properties as a landlord and is now completing his second kitchen installation. You can read his review of YTA and our tutors below:

I attended a suite of YTA courses including Tiling, Carpentry, Plumbing, Plastering, Bricklaying and Kitchen Fitting. I was a novice, working in IT, with little more experience than the odd DIY job. I have used all the training as a landlord, renovating a few properties. I’ve installed 3 bathrooms (includes all appliances , tiling, and flooring), and I’m currently installing my 2nd kitchen (again involving plenty of plumbing, tiling, woodwork etc). As well as numerous other DIY tasks, around the place. I understand this would be a small fortune to pay tradespeople to do. I’ve done it myself, thanks to skills and confidence developed as a result of attending YTA courses, instructed by the excellent tutors Lorry, Dave, and Graham. I also gained a great deal of knowledge surrounded by industry trades people, also cross-training across disciplines. A very helpful perspective. I’ve plenty to learn in maintaining properties, but I think its helpful to get a good grounding in what is a multi-discipline/skill set of tasks. Many thanks to tutors and course colleagues.I recommend to anyone who wants to have a go and do a good job, and some might say, professional.

Thank you Nigel for an excellent 5 star multiple courses YTA review. It’s always lovely to see students put their training and skills to good use following the courses.
