Looking for a job where you are seen as a hero? Consider applying for a position as a plumber. The main tasks of a plumber are to install and repair water supply lines and waste disposal mechanisms. The job can be physically demanding, as you will have to handle heavy materials. Some projects can be challenging: you might find yourself wedged in a frigid crawl space trying to fix a draining line… however, the job needs to get done. For those willing to accept the challenge, compensation is motivating. Because of the nature of your job, you will often be on call to plumbing urgencies meaning you might work on weekend and be on night calls. If you are looking for a career in plumbing with less working hours, consider applying for pipe laying and pipefitting jobs.
A qualified plumber will start on £20.000 in a medium sized company. Plumbers can expect a salary of £30.000 towards the end of their career. Trade schools and community colleges offer training for plumbing jobs. Training is typically followed by a 4 to 5 year apprenticeship which involves paid on the job training. A license is usually issued after two to five years of experience enabling a plumber to work independently.
