Our plastering training department caters for all aspects
of Plastering. The Department is managed by Glenn Cooke a time served
Plasterer and Instructor, who possesses over 25yrs experience. Glenn and his
team of 2 Instructors have spent many years working within the Plastering
and Construction industry. They have also spent many years teaching and
developing our Plastering courses. By working with and listening to students
plastering needs they have developed a range of plastering courses to suit
any skill level.
Whether you’re
a beginner or time served plasterer we can and will improve your Plastering
skills.
Plastering Courses are designed to provide you with
as much hands-on experience, insight and understanding of plastering as we
can give you in the timescale that you choose.
If you are completing the Plastering course for DIY
purposes then we believe the 5 day program will deliver all you need and the
confidence to start your first Plastering project. If you want more
technical and modern Plastering techniques then we advise you completing our
10 day plastering course which is a mix of our basic 5 day course and our
Skimming & Dry lining course. For those that are seeking a career change
then our 4 week plastering course is for you. It’ll give you over 120hrs
Plastering experience and is sure to make you into a plasterer.
The Plastering department is set within its own 3000sqft
area of our facility. We have an area of 15 basic Plastering bays that
consist of a Wall, Window, ceiling and pier that will be yours for the
duration of your basic Plastering course. We have an area of 6 self
contained Dry Lining bays and a separate advanced Plastering space that is
made up of 2 twelve metre square ceilings and 4 extra large walls that will
test and accelerate your plastering skills.
We are not promising to make you a Plasterer in 5 days.
But we do promise to provide you with the best possible Plastering course
you can find for the price and timescale. We have trained and guided
literally thousands of Plasterers or trainee Plasterers over the years and
we know that personal ability is always an important factor in how fast and
how well an individual progresses on the basic Plastering course. This also
applies to our 10 day and 4 week plastering courses. However, we do believe
that the more time anyone spends on the Plastering courses the better they
will be. This may seem obvious, but it is true. Our plastering team also
pride themselves on their ability to be honest and fair with all plastering
students, and if they feel that any plastering student has not attained the
standard to move on or advance through all the plastering stages and
objectives, they will address the plastering student and where possible
alter the course content to suit the individual plasterer.
All Plastering course tools and materials are provided on
all plastering courses. The centre is proud of our recycling and
environmentally friendly practices. The Plastering department is a leader in
how we practice this. The plastering department has a water recycling unit
designed specifically to reuse all expended plastering water. For example when
plastering student from the plastering course cleans his or hers plastering
tools the dirty plastering water is passed through a series of chambers
until it is clean and reusable. This water is then used for mixing all
plastering materials throughout the duration of the plastering course.
We provide technical support after you have completed your plastering course. If you are on a plastering job and have any technical difficulties then you can feel free to call and speak to one of our plastering tutors who will do their very best help you out!
