Did you know that 24% of women during their time in school were not advised to take up a trade during their time in school and were encouraged more into what people may consider more stereotypical roles for women like Admin and Secretarial Roles? A recent survey by WaterSafe, the UK’s leading Plumbing Assurance Scheme showed that 31% of women said that they would rather a female Plumber carry out work on their home. But the most important factor that people look for with over 70% of people stating that regardless of the gender of the tradesperson the first thing that they look for is an assurance of the quality of work they have completed.
