As suggested, post again on the Spain forum, but please don't consider France, as the norms are completely different from the UK and you'd have to prove that you work to French standards and officially sign off your work.
Good luck!

Re: Plumbing work
Hello and a big welcome to BE.
Excellent information can be found in the BE Wiki, not forgetting the Living and Moving Abroad forum that will help you, another set of great help is the permanent threads at the TOP of each forum, they are very pertinent to that particular forum and makes sensible reading.
Moderators deal with any problems that arise such as inappropriate posts, spammers etc, you will find their names at the bottom right hand side of each forum's index in bold font.
Unemployment is high in Spain especially in the building industry so you could struggle to find work.
Please contact me if I can give you any further help.
