Heating Engineer because that's what I specialise in.
Gas Engineer
Plumber but I keep away from plumbing out of choice because I like playing with boilers and heating systems.

I've got a cerfiticate that says I'm a mechanical services engineer...

Plumbing and heating engineer is fine by me

Cannot eat a job title. Show me the money.

If you want to call yourself just a 'plumber' while a lot of monkeys out there with little or no experience, OR those capable but who just want to do bad work, but call themselves 'Engineers', then I think you are underselling yourself. First impressions of you from a potential customer is your job title. 'Plumber' says to me less skilled, plus possibly someone who can't do heating work.

My City & Guilds certificates say-
Plumbing Craft.
Plumbing Advanced Craft.
If you have the same qualifications you will know what was covered in the four years of this course.

i call myself a Plumber, and I'm proud of that job title.

Plumber says to you less skilled, very odd ???

I call myself a plumber even though ive not done the NVQ, ssshhhhh ;-)

I'm a maintenance plumber at a well known London uni. Not done my NVQ but got my C&G Lvl 2. I'm actually wondering if most employers actually know the difference between a certificate and an NVQ but oh well I get the work done 😀

Might do a few small private jobs to get my NVQ signed, how would I go about starting this?
