Built Up Felt Roofer - Adam Ward

Adam Ward,
Aged 20

Qualification

NVQ 2 Built-Up Felt Roofing

What do you do day-to-day?
I work in a gang of 3 or 4 people laying different types of roofing products onto a range of roofs, from garages to 9-storey high buildings.

What advice would you give prospective students?
It's different from school because at college you are treated like an adult and you do lots of outdoor practical training.

What are the social aspects to your course?
At college I made lots of new friends and we all helped each other through the tough bits. We had a good instructor which helped a lot.

What does the future hold?
At a later date I'd like to do some more training and become a roofing technician.
