The aim of the course is to provide the Service leaver with a range of practical skills relating to constructing or maintaining external structures in domestic properties. It will suit Service leavers who want to undertake projects in their own homes as well as those looking at a future in property development. This course will give all the necessary skills to complete work to a high standard saving considerably on costs.
The course content can be flexible according to the demands of the students but will include some or all of the following. If a student has a particular project in mind and it is within the scope of the course, every effort will be made to give tuition on it.
- Bricklaying techniques to support exterior projects
- Step construction
- Path laying
- Patio laying
- Block paving
- Concrete bases
- Individual projects such as retaining garden walls, raised beds etc
- All relevant Health and Safety.
There will be an introduction to the tools and materials used for the various projects and concentrate on practical tasks relating to maintaining and finishing constructions.
This course is ideal as a follow on from the 15 day ‘Property Maintenance’ course also held at the RTC.
