Wet Services and Plumbing Installation Supervision

Water and drainage installations are hidden in walls and floors, so poor workmanship only surfaces as leaks and blockages long after the trade has left site. This course prepares supervisors to control plumbing and wet services from first fix to commissioning. It covers pipe materials, drainage gradients, pressure testing and the coordination needed to keep plumbing clear of structural and finishing conflicts.

What you will be able to do

  • Read plumbing and drainage layouts against the building fabric.
  • Supervise hot, cold and drainage first fix installations.
  • Control pipe materials, jointing and support requirements.
  • Set drainage gradients and check invert levels on site.
  • Conduct pressure and flow tests before covering up work.
  • Coordinate wet services with structure and finishing trades.
