Plumbers install, repair, and maintain plumbing systems in commercial properties, including pipes, fixtures, water distribution systems, and wastewater and drainage systems. They work with other trades and laborers to complete projects efficiently and ensure work meets building codes, safety standards, manufacturer specifications, and environmental protection requirements. The role includes scheduled maintenance and emergency service work, including participation in an on-call rotation and work at night or on weekends as needed. Plumbers identify and use appropriate tools and equipment; locate and mark installation positions; install pipe supports, hangers, valves, and fittings; and service water treatment equipment, sinks, tubs, toilets, water heaters, conditioners, appliances, and plumbing fixtures. They test systems for leaks and ensure installations and repairs are properly sized, aligned, supported, and graded. The position requires customer service, accurate daily completion of job tickets and mileage logs, and recording truck-stock use. Plumbers follow job-site safety and etiquette requirements, wear company uniforms and proper work boots, maintain clean work areas, communicate with clients and office staff, and use company vehicles and equipment responsibly. Work may involve prolonged outdoor activity, awkward positions, heavy lifting, exposure to hot or cold materials, sharp equipment, hazardous gases or substances, construction noise, dust, debris, and sewer or water odors.
