hello forum, excellent site you have here!
My query is basically about training to become a painter and decorator. I have applied to my local college as a mature student (I am 23 ) and have recently enrolled on a Painting and decorating ICA (intermediate construction award). My plan is to complete this 2 year course and start my own small business. I will be going to college 1 day a week for a full day.
Please could anyone help me with these few questions:
1) has anyone else on the forum done the same course and can offer any advice, tips or general feedback on how it went, recommended?
2) Is there generally a high demand for painters and decorators compared to other trades such as plasterers etc.
Many thanks and I look forward to your help, cheers
