Wondering what course would be recommended for me have been fitting vinyl and carpet for 29 years , have fitted LVT over the years but only basic stuff no Borders , interested in learning the correct way of doing it , because I keep getting enquires and would like to expand in to this . I know there is basic intermediate and advanced courses . I am a nicf member so will look at there courses too . I see there is one in January but wondered if there is any thing down south
closest down south i think is Karndean. We are about 25 mins away from them. The karndean courses are very good. But i would recommend one of our courses over it as there not product pacific so you get to try different LVT's, different adhesives etc. Plus we have the best trainers viewtopic.php?f=96&t=5965
Lots of Internet firms recommend nicf fitters Inc next and tescos ........although not had one single job from them but ...... I do get other work from Internet mainly natural flooring which you can charge what u like cos no one wants to fit it !
At present im BWFA's trainer. We are going through the process of registering a training School that will be using the BWFA premisses. As for who is running the place = Sid Bourne, not sure i need to give him a introduction? (if you dont know who he is then google him) :thumbs Me.. Matt Bourne, NICF ex trainer (before FITA) + the other loads of places, represented the UK etc o and i am still the youngest NICF master fitter ever. (well im old now but passed at 18 years of age and no one has passed at a younger age yet ) Darren- Darren is ex Karndean/ polyfloor etc There our nominated LVT Trainers at present.
Thanks for the Nicf advice but not everyone can work for Tesconext but if it allows work for people then at least it has its benefits.
U can't work for tesco ? They just pass your name on to the customer , most firms on the internet who sell carpet dont send fitters out so they recommend using the nicf site and normally I would end up doing the whole job by doing an all in price, turning a fitting enquiry in to a nice order
