I've been union for 20+ years in Chicago. Only advice I have is save your money because when times get slow and layoffs come around the union won't do much to help. U sit on the bench and wait. But make sure to lay them dues!!
Plumbers can make as much as they want, they just rip everyone off on the jobs!! LOL

Fresno area trying to get into plumbing

Great channel. Very good advice. I live in Dallas as well
I am disappointed in myself that I never sought out a trade in my early 20s. I'm wanting to get into one of the fields electric, plumbing and/or hvac.
Is trade school a must? I hear different opinions. I have looked at applying at Milestone Electric since they do a little bit of everything, but their apprenticeship program requires the apprentice license plus (+1 year of residential work experience), well, if I am going into this field a beginner how do I obtain experience to become eligible for their apprentice program lol. I have seen others like that as well.
Any advice on how to get my foot in the door with a company, with or without attending a trade school? Thanks.
What happens when winter time comes and work slows down. The biggest worry for me is work slowing down and not making nearly as much as I think. I have a brother in law who is a union pump truck operator and he seems to always be laid off or cant find work. He can go a month without work.

can you substitute ten yrs 4 a license plumber
well Said. all very true.
I run my own company and it took a lot of hard work. You have to enjoy working and working hard for a living. I charge over $100 an hour, and i turn down work every day. If you build your business the correct way, which is making sure the job is done professionally and done correctly and making sure the customer is always happy, it doesn't matter how much it costs.
Im still learning every day, and every job is different in its own way, thats why i love my job as a plumber.
Good luck
Millions. U have ur own business, lend your license and soul to other jobs(which is wrong) etc. ..

Why do plumbers charge for estimates?
I need a couple corroded pipes replaced. All together, about 15 feet. I'll say an hour worth of work.
I had some plumber wanting to charge like $900.
I am not pay $800 an hour in labor.
And some other plumbers won't even give tell me how much they charge an hour for labor.
I know they don't know the full cost of the job.
But labor should cost the same, no matter how big or small the job is.
Materials are extra, I know that. But labor should be a set price, no matter what.
And I am not paying $100 for you to take a look at it.
