Hi everyone
Hoping to come to Adelaide next year to live. Just waiting for visas.
Can anyone give me any info on Wall and floor tilers and what are the
job prospects for this trade.
Thanks

Hi Debs,Dave and Kids.
We have just began the process of moving to Oz :P and my partner is a floor fitter (floor finisher over in Oz). we had the same concerns with job prospects also, i do social work here but my partner (peter) will be the main income over there initially. we also have a 9 year old son. we have reseached a lot with the flooring trade over in Oz and it does appear to be in demand at the moment. Peter specializes in Laminates and Karndean, not exactly a floor tiler. We found a web address which lists over 500 jobs might be worth a look.

Dawn :P :D

Hi Dawn
Thanks for the info. We are Adelaide bound by next September. We are awaiting meds (approx Nov) and getting visas Feb. We are on the Wirral but Dave is originally from Liverpool. West Derby.
Once again, thanks for the info and keep us informed of your progress and vise versa.
Take care
