    Caulking Irons

    No thanks still got my set buried somewhere in my garage. Surprised if many know what to do with them in our days of plastic or time savers. Got mine from Thames Bank St Johns Wood in 1970's, Doubt if they even exist now.

    Would you be proud if your child ended up being a plumber?

    A very PROUD dad... My son is 23 and fully qualified Plumbing and gas heating engineer... at least it gives us something to talk and laugh about... especially when some of the older ones don't know what they are talking about. Think this one is going to be a tech ONE engineer.

    Qualifcations

    I was thinking of becoming a brain surgeon. No qualifications. But all ok. because if it goes wrong, the patient will know different. So why is it in the gas industry, that people think they can do work with out the qualifications and registration?

    Can you work on a boiler if your not Gas Safe?

    Question is? why are you messing around a boiler that you have not been proven competent in an assessment centre and are not legally registered to do so. Finer detail is if you have not broken into a gas way then that is not illegal.

We recommend City Plumbing Supplies, BES, and Plumbing Superstore for all plumbing supplies.
