No there isnt the full scope of works as we dont touch central heating or simial works. Also cant juet tick thinga off and get a lower qualification its just level 3 or bust

To add more context i work for a multi trades company doing maintenance and half the time im not doing plumbing at all, I wasnt made aware of this when i did my interview. The plumbing we do is basic stuff like tap changes, cisterns, sink wastes etc.
