hi everyone
i did an ICA 6 week course at Chase Tiling Academy in Jan/Feb.im late in posting this msg as ive only just done my gola test.Although i cant comment on other training centres i can fully recommend chase tiling for anyone thinking of training to be a tiler.Like to thank phil,anthony,margaret and sonia for all their friendly and expert help before, during and after the course.whenever i asked a question i always got a friendly and helpful answer with a bit of humour thrown in .Id like to thank phil especially for all his hard work put in on the 6 weeks i was there ,hours of work we never see him do (hope u win gold mate ive got 20 quid on you).
ii dont come on the forum much but i wanted to show my appreciation to the team at chase and when ive saved enough cash up ill be going back to do the plumbing course with anthony.
good luck in future

Hi all just finished the 6 week tiling course with those blaggards !
at ‘ChaseTilingAcademy’ had a great time and gained all the necessary skills to change career after 24 years in the Civil Service. Never done anything like this prior to the course. Learned loads and found the course to be of high quality and value for money.

Just a short thank you to all the staff there and a quick praise regarding for their friendly and professional approach during the course. Always got an answer to any questions in a friendly, helpful and often highly humours way !

Got 6 domestic jobs lined up already and the usual family ‘can you’ demands so looking good.

To Phil especially many thanks chap. I expect you to win that Gold in the Olympic shooting and will be putting a £100 on you so you better win or I will nick your grout! :41:

I Intend doing the 2 week plumbing course again at ‘ChaseTilingAcademy’ with Anthony in early July 2008.

To those of you who may be worried as I was about joining or doing this course hand on heart I can honestly say it’s the best thing I have done for many years.
Give it a go !

We are very pleased to hear that you enoyed your course, keep on track with your jobs and collecting your evidence for your NVQ in a month or so time (if you still plan to do this of course!!).

Looking forward to having you back in July mate, and get you a bit more practice on those speedfit fittings!! 😉

See you soon,

Anthony & all here at the Academy 🙂
 
I like that picture .
I trained last year at chase did the two week course it was a very good course and a lot of fun .
Hi Phil and Anthony by the way.
Its Paul Hadfield (excellent bathrooms)
I no I only did the two week course so didn't get the full knowledge .
Since leaving I would say that I have been accused of over preparing by my dad but I have been trying to follow the instructions from chase to the letter however this seems to mean jobs take me allot longer than others who just get tiling no pva etc.
Saying that I have not had any problems on any job except as a result of rubbish adhesive so now I try to stick with bal grip etc.
Also I have had to totally disregard the pricing structure laid out in the manual first two times I did it I was working for not very much money.
I know someone who charges £35 a meter for anything I tend to work on days .
My worst job was a very small downstairs toilet that had had lining paper over artex but it had been done that well it looked like it was plastered. I did not know about it till I started prepping that job took 3 days longer than I expected .
Lesson now learned.
I would defiantly recommend this tiling course for learning how it should be done properly .
I think prepping is something you have to learn about on the job.
 
Hi Paul

Thanks for your comments. This coincides with the feedback that other students leave when finishing the course

Regards

Got in from a hard day graft last week to find my NVQ Level 2 certificate had been posted. I did an ICA course with Chase back in January then went straight on to do my nvq the whole process took about 5 months from start to finish and I am now a fully qualified Wall And Floor Tiler.


Big thank you to everyone at Chase tiling :thumbsup:
