If you go through an apprenticeship that will also give you an advantage aswell. If you want it bad enough you’ll do just fine. I’d say Go for it!

      @LIFE-N-PLUMBING 13 дней назад

      My apprenticeship was known non-union so I wouldn’t be able to answer that for sure. I do have friends you have journeyed out non-union who are now union. From what I’ve been told it is not an easy process but over time (some months) they did get in. As far as becoming an apprentice I’m sure it’s just a waiting game and those who are persistent will eventually get in if you stay on top of it.

    Hey man Im about to start plumbing school in a few weeks but wondering if this trade is for me. Im not a hands on person but I am very analytical and detail oriented. Im a problem solver to the point where I cant let things go until I accomplished fixing it. Im also a cleansy person. My fear is the fact that im not a handy person naturally it will discourage me to quit. I'm also afraid of heights. I heard sometimes plumbers have to be in 12ft height.

    • @LIFE-N-PLUMBING
      @LIFE-N-PLUMBING Месяц назад

      lol that’s a tough one. I will never discourage you from joining because I believe you can have what ever you put your mind to get. With that being said, don’t let fear hold you back from anything. You’ve got great qualities to bring to the table and the fear of heights may get in the way but not enough to derail you. If they like you and you are teachable and on top of things, they may have you just stay on the ground for the most part. (Depends on company and your relationship) but If plumbing something you’re really considering and you already enrolled in school I’d say go for it.

    So I am getting into plumbing and have tons of sales experience. Can you elaborate a bit on what you mean by sales and plumbing? I am currently getting involved with my local union for plumbing and pipefitting because I love welding as a hobby and like the physical labor and geometry part of pipefitting and plumbing commercially.

    • @LIFE-N-PLUMBING
      @LIFE-N-PLUMBING Месяц назад

      That’s awesome! And as for the sales, I have been on both sides as far as commercial and residential. If you’re looking to sale which residential service companies would be your best bet. There are a lot of plumbing companies out there that offer great incentives as far as piece work or commission on services sold along with an hourly rate. It all depends on what your goals. Commercial, for instance being apart of a union in my opinion is pretty set in stone as far as there system goes. Unless you get on as a marketing consultant or start your own company there isn’t to many opportunities their for sales man. Hope this helps.

    @MattHmm-rq6dn Месяц назад

    As a general contractor with alot of apartment maintenence to do I get it... I use a large garden kneeler seat that has a wood top to get my bag off the ground. It's also important that you don't damage peoples home by putting harder steel tools scratching people's furniture. Another thing I bring besides my kneeler and vpp tech pack is a large klein canvas bucket. You can line them with a trash bag but it it serves as a clean as you go (collapes down to no space). One thing you'll find out quick is getting lazy about things putting tools back emptying trash ect... so the klein bucket is small and I'm forced to deal with it there and then not just a bunch of plastic buckets full of catch all trash. I highly recommend thoes collapsible camp sink with a drain for working on plumbing. If someone has stuff if there sink you can load up the camp sink with water and test the thin wall pipes. The collapsible nature allows you to adjust the height under p traps and at $8 to $20 is a barging to not have to clean up a mess. Just some thoughts...

    • @LIFE-N-PLUMBING
      @LIFE-N-PLUMBING Месяц назад

    • @MattHmm-rq6dn
      @MattHmm-rq6dn Месяц назад

      Klein Tools 5109S Canvas Bucket is the one I have and it holds 75lbs which is plenty and not horribly expensive. They have a drain hole in the bottom that makes them to clean. Best yet the material can get nasty and black from being wet and still won't die and is cleanable its a good investment.

    Hey, nice video man I've been an EMT for 10 years, I'm looking to get into the trade. I've always been fascinated with plumbing and always See myself gravitating towards it. Is 35 too old to start? I just feel like im midlife, just like you. My father was a plumber but never forced me into the trade. I found myself hovering around all the time. Wondering is this for me?

    • @LIFE-N-PLUMBING

I would just suggest learning as much as you can before your first day on the field so you don’t feel like your trailing behind, It’s a mental thing but either way if your committed to learn you’ll run across a lot of great mentors willing to teach. I made a Free Ebook that can help you get on your way aswell best of luck man.

      It’s definitely not for everyone. Do keep in mind my friend sales is the highest paid profession for a reason and we all have to do it in one way shape or form, most people don’t realize how often we actually have to sell ourselves everyday. Shady people aren’t the problem, deciding not to be a solution is in my humble opinion. So many people joining the trade for the wrong reasons not enough for the right reason and that’s why you probably view the industry in that way. But best of luck to you and whatever you decide.
