What you will learn through this course
A quick overview of the practical knowledge and techniques you will gain from enrolling in this course.
Complete Measuring Techniques
Learning complete measuring techniques will demonstrate how and where to measure both windows and doors. This includes multiple scenarios and various building products that affect the sizes you take.
Better Planning
Part of surveying a project is to understand what to look out for onsite to enable better planning prior to an installation taking place. These can include obstructions or obstacles, access issues and also customer expectations. Your trainer will walk you through step by step, ensuring you fully understand the procedures and leave the course educated.
Focus on Accuracy
Many projects such as bay window installations, shaped window frames and conservatories require a high degree of accuracy and identifying correct angles/pitches. At your ProFitter surveyors training you will be taught the competencies of these requirements and how to gain the right information by use of certain methods and devices.
Example Paperwork
Recording your onsite sizes and information is above all the most important element of being a surveyor. ProFitter helps by providing you with example paperwork to allow you to accurately and easily record these.
