Our bricklaying courses are taught by retired master builder, Barry.The plastering & bricklaying courses in Dumfries are run by Dave, who is also a very experienced builder & has been with The Plastering Workshop since its inception.

Description
Welcome to Plastering WorkshopWhether you're involved in a DIY building project or just want to try your hand at a skilled trade - these plastering & bricklaying courses are for you. In true building style the days are informal, being great fun but informative .With a maximum of 5 students per instructor on any course, plenty of individual tuition & time to discuss your particular project is assured.Why spend 4 or 5 days on a building course when, due to the small sizes of our groups, we can cover the same techniques in 3 days?So you have a house that's in need of a little renovation? No problem you say, 'I'll get a builder in'. It is only then you realise how much this may cost.Being able to plaster or brick lay could mean the whole DIY project can be carried out by yourself without having to rely on a builder.
