As a plumber, your reputation is everything. Ask any successful plumbing contractor, and they’ll agree: word-of-mouth builds a business. At the core of great recommendations is trust, and trust is earned by consistently delivering quality workmanship supported by top-notch materials.
It’s a familiar dilemma—choosing between budget and premium fittings. The price difference may seem significant in isolation, but at the end of a busy day, that disparity could add up to little more than the price of a cup of coffee. Is it worth risking your hard-earned reputation for that?
Those who’ve faced costly claims for leaks know the answer all too well: it’s not. Beyond increased insurance premiums and the stress of legal proceedings, the lasting impact is often irreparable damage to a plumber’s reputation. In today’s age of social media, where a single post can reach hundreds in minutes, protecting your professional image is more critical than ever.
Quality products are integral, but so is expert installation—and that’s where training plays a crucial role. However, finding time for training in a busy schedule isn’t always easy.
Training That Comes to You
The Instantor Mobile Training Academy is breaking new ground by bringing top-tier training directly to plumbers, merchants, and students across the UK and Ireland. Whether at trade counters, merchant head offices, or plumbing colleges, the Academy delivers hands-on demonstrations of Instantor press solutions and the Tucson Pumps range.
Installers can explore the ease and efficiency of press fittings in a dynamic, dedicated training space. Participants also have the opportunity to receive competency-based ID cards, certifying their expertise in working with Instantor products—a valuable addition to any professional’s credentials.
