ReactFast have been into plumbing and drainage for years and that is one of the reasons their franchise offering has been so successful
since launching in early 2005. Mick Fitzgerald MD of training comments “A lot of time was invested in developing a training programme
that not only delivered qualifications, such as Part P electrical and C&G 6022/6032 plumbing, but also the maximum amount of “real life”
