We are also pleased to be able to offer our trainees the option to get practical experience with our sister company Clearflow Services - from unblocking drains and use of high pressure jetting unit, to drain surveys with the use of CCTV (drainage course is optional at no extra cost).

On completion of our 2 week course we aim to give our trainees the confidence and knowledge to carry out all aspects of practical plumbing and central heating. We will put you in contact with a national network of agencies and insurance companies in your area. Advice and guidance can be offered for setting up and running your own emergency plumbing and drainage company.
