Why Should You Consider Becoming an Electrician?
How about having a recognised skill?How about having a serious opportunity to become self-employed, to run your own business and to build a repeat client base?
When you want to hang up your tools would you like to have a business you can sell?
Would you like to be charging typically ң25 to ң50 plus per hour?Ҡ
Would you like the job satisfaction of a job well done with no two days the same?
You can choose where you decide to operate.
How do you like the sound of the above? Well, why not seriously consider retraining to become an electrician?
Despite some recent doom and gloom in the construction industry and the economy as a whole, for dedicated and motivated people this represents a great opportunity to re-train during the down time. When the economy starts to grow again you will be ready to take full advantage, having re-trained over a period of some months.Ҡ
I do not share the view that just because house builders are holding fire with some developments means there will be a lack of work for electricians. This is the exact opposite. For starters there is already a serious shortage of qualified electricians. As it already has a traditional older workforce who are retiring and a serious lack of apprenticeships on offer, this shortage is not going to disappear overnight.
Secondly tradesmen who are not qualified are getting caught out and prosecuted as it is now illegal to say youre an electrician at someones door without having undertaken proper training and holding the up to date qualifications. For example a plumber can offer to do your refit of your bathroom but most people know that unless he is Corgi registered he cannot work on your gas. Likewise Part P of the Building Regulations was introduced January 2005 to stamp out rogue tradesmen for domestic wiring.
As many more people are choosing to stay in their homes rather than having the expense of moving, this represents a fantastic opportunity for motivated electricians to get into this field.
Loft conversions, extensions, conservatories, house rewiring, new bathrooms, new offices in the gardens, new kitchens, general repairs and callouts. In addition there will always be a requirement for the building of new houses and flats to meet demand.
There is also a requirement for skilled electricians for the more adventurous in overseas countries like Australia and Canada.
