hi all,
i`ve just been reading through a few of these threads and it seems that a lot of guys think they can go out there and do a 1 to 4 week course, then go out starting a tiling business.
i know i live on the other side of the world but tiling principles are the same any where you live. I have had over twenty apprentices work for me(four at present),
and i can definatly tell you that none of them would have the experience even after 3 years to run your own business.
If Joe public is shelling out good money to have a trademan like finnish do you think that some one withfour weeks experience would be able to replicate that?
In the end it only gives the tiling industry a bad name when there is a whole lot of inexperienced cowboys posing as tilers!!!!!!!!!!
I bet a highly experienced tiler over there would be able to make a rubbish load of money fixing up everyone else's **** ups.
Maybe you guys need to start setting up some kind of licence system to sort the men out from the boys!!!!
cheers aussie dave
