I have an nvq 3 qualification in Brickwork and groundworks which i archeived after doing a 3 year apprenticeship during this time i worked on many different types and styles of jobs ranging from domestic work to commercial industrial building.

After leaving my apprenticeship i went self employed, i started off doing small extensions doing everything from the groundworks up to wallplate then coming back into plaster the walls and ceilings .Eventually i moved on to doing full reovations

I decided to go sub-contracting with this particuliar firm because they specialised in natural stone and lime work which i wanted to improve on which i belive i am very skilled in now .

                                              ABOUT MYSELF

During my apprenticeship with E.G. Carters I undertook many different projects from small extensions to new build warehouses I was also involved in renovation projects where I have learnt a variable amount of skills such as plastering and 1^st and 2^nd fix carpentry which I believe would be useful to your company.

Being Self-employed has given me experience in running projects including tasks such as organising materials, creating my own drawings and working to them and working to a set deadline which I have always achieved.
