SkillBuild National Final is the ultimate stage of the UK’s largest construction skills competition. TTA joined on 18th–19th November 2026 at Arena MK in Milton Keynes, as this year’s wall and floor tiling finalists put their skills to the test. Each year, TTA helps to judge the wall and floor tiling category and encourages new entrants into tiling by hosting hands-on demonstrations.
Whether you’re representing a school or college, looking to hire and network as an employer, or simply curious about a career in tiling, the annual SkillBuild competition brings fresh-eyed talent in one place with live competition and interactive activities.
TTA is once again proud to sponsor SkillBuild alongside TTA members Building Adhesives Ltd (BAL), N&C Nicobond and Schlüter-Systems who kindly supply materials and lend their support.
The countdown is also on for Open Doors 2027, with events now being registered ahead of taking place in March. Organised by Build UK, Open Doors has a proven track record of recruiting the next generation, giving visitors the chance to go behind the scenes and see the wide range of careers available in the industry. 81% of visitors in 2026 said that they were more likely to consider a career in construction after their visit.
So why wait? Get involved with TTA’s training support and industry events to demonstrate your commitment to the future of tiling
