With 20 years of experience, Michael impressed judges in the semi-finals, showcasing how he grew a successful business after originally training as a plumbing apprentice at Leeds College of Building.

The Screwfix Top Tradesperson attracted over 1,000 applications this year, with just 10 making the final stage.

"I'm really proud to have made it to the final. […] I love being part of the trade and my long-term goal is to support as many other people as possible to enjoy a rewarding and successful career in the industry. To be crowned Screwfix Top Tradesperson would be a dream come true."

Michael will now need to impress a panel of judges, including representatives from the Chartered Institute of Plumbing and Heating Engineering (CIPHE), the National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting (NICEIC), and Screwfix Top Tradesperson 2022 champion, Toby Peacock.

Rob Smith, Head of Partnerships & Skills at Leeds College of Building, said:

"Myself and all the Apprenticeship team at Leeds College of Building couldn't be prouder of Michael. It's fantastic to see how far he has come since training with us, thanks to his hard work and dedication.
