Thanks Beulah!
Really informative videos, just subbed. Currently in a pre-apprenticeship program looking forward to starting my apprenticeship. Soaking up as much knowledge as I can.
Thanks for the support!
I have been searching for this channel, I'm glad. I would like to ask if international students or foreigners with working permit visas can apply for a plumbing apprenticeship? and is age a barrier? I'm 29yrs.

Starting my apprenticeship in three weeks. I'm incredibly nervous! Your videos help Kenny! You're the man!
That’s Amazing Keenan! Best of luck with the apprenticeship! And let me know how it goes!
@@Kennymolotov absolutely man! I'm only 23 and decided to make a big scary career change but I think it'll pay off in the long run! I'll keep you updated Kenny thanks! I've been super unhappy in my current situation and your videos along with Roger Wakefields have inspired me to pursue plumbing as a trade!
Really glad you’re finding a new path that suits you Keenan. And I’m happy the videos have been helping. Keep your chin up, you got this 💪
Have my first day at a service plumbing company tomorrow, so appreciating your videos! I’m in my mid twenties and also realized I need a career. Awesome to see you and other people with maybe not a trade background succeeding in the industry and even liking it! thank you!
Best of luck tomorrow Maia! Thanks for the support and let me know how it goes!
Kenny Molotov Been at it a little over a month now and love it!
@@maiaa-s7986how’s it going now?
Hi kenny. Thanks for the video. I am about to starting apprentice, and I have a question. Will the master plumber you will be work with will let you lift toilet yourself? thanks
Am a plumber from Nigeria, however I will like to relocate to Canada as a plumber.
Is it advisable to apply for a year plumbing course in any college or I should go to the express entry?
Hi
First of all thx for great plumbing video for newbies. I have been tile contractor for past 15 years residential and commercial ( downtown Toronto , GTA ), im local 183 member. I got to the point in my career that i want to change my trade to something else and plumbing was always interesting me. Tiling showers, tub, floor etc in houses and condos, u see plumbers working, so after 15 years believe it or not u know how to install toilet faucet etc, small stuff. 3 years ago i was not exactly sure what trade i really like, so i signed up for HVAC G3 at Hi Marks 4 months course in classroom with exam at the end which i passed with 82% ( 3.5 hour long exam, code book, etc ) so im TSSA G3 gas technician .
Question:
To become Red Seal plumber i have to:
get a job with plumbing company as government registered apprentice to get the 9000 or so hours and THEN i sign up for pluming college and do the 1.5 year in classroom? How that works?
Or i go to college for the apprentice pluming program and the school finds the co-op pluming company to hire me for 4 months and then u come back do 4 months in school till i get the 9000 hours work ( co-op) and then i write exam and get the "red seal"
Which should i go first ? find company to do th 9000 hours or should i go to pluming apprentice college?
Sorry im confused, cause from tile setter point of view i didn't have to go to any apprenticeship programs at all. Just sing up with a union, call few company if they look for sub-contractors and if they do u do some paper work and Im ready to take 1st house tomorrow. LOL simple.
Or should i call local 46 for plumbers, and see if i can get into the union, ? My opinion i prefer school with hands on work, Knowledge is important even though i might not use it now but i might use it later on other project and u know the standards, codes, materials, pipes, etc, which im acquainted with.
Ur help is appreciated

Hey Kenny I just wanted to know is Humber and George brown the same? Or is one school better to study at?
And I wanted to know lets say my compang specializes in risers and service and they don't do residential, how do you suggest i get my experience on the Residential side?
Hey Amanvir, those schools compete against each other, and the curriculum should be extremely similar between them. So it only will depend on your experience in other words. With the company, you would have to probably go into a new construction company that does residential. Hope this helps.
@@Kennymolotov thanks for the advice appreciate it
that’s 100% how it goes! i’m 19 started at 18 my plumbing apprentice. i’m a first year doing new construction and for the first 8ish months it was just hand tools and clean and stare lol... but now i usually do vents and 1 1/2 pipe etc and if we have service calls i’ll just assist my boss. i start school march 9th tho super excited!! At clair college in windsor!
School is going to be great! I’m glad you’re finally getting to it. It totally opens up your mind! And when you get back to work, you understand things so much more!
Do plumbers work at heights? I was thinking of looking into the trade, but not a huge fan of heights. Looking more into the residential side,
Hey Michael, yes in some applications plumbers do work at heights. But it is not something I would consider common. I hope this helps.
@@Kennymolotov Thanks for the response!
Do you know anyone that received the Weston family scholarship? I'm taking plumbing at school and they claim that scholarship really helps with getting an apprenticeship
Hey Shaquille, I’ve never heard about it myself, or know anyone whose received it...
hello sir. im starting my job on monday. can i use jogger pants? which im comfortable to move. im nervous as i dont have any expererience
it would be best to ask your workplace what the best uniform would be.
I need help: Im looking to begin an apprenticeship but Im not clear if there is apprentice registration paperwork that must be signed to begin this journey. A lot of the jobs that I have found may just be helper positions. They may lead to an apprenticeship position, should I ask about this in an interview?
Hi Scotty, the answer is yes there are papers that you and the company have to sign to register you as an apprentice. If you are looking to get licensed then you should definitely ask the companies you’re interviewing with if they will be able to sign you as an apprentice, and how long until they can sign you as an apprentice. I hope this helps.
@@Kennymolotov Thats what I needed to know. Thank you for the reply.
Of course friend, best of luck and let me know how it goes.
I started at a plumbing company to learn the trade. Been here for a little over 3 months and they have me in the shop all the time, running parts. They hired a new guy and hes already going to do jobs. Is this normal or should i look for a new company?
Hey friend, sorry to hear about this. My feeling is that you should first have a polite conversation with your superiors. Express to them that you were really hoping to be hands on in the trade, and ask if there is any way that can happen. If they say no, then find a new company. If they say yes, ask a timeframe for when that will happen. If by that timeframe comes they do not get you on job sites, then look for a new company. If they do get you on job sites by that time then they seem to be keeping their promises. Hope this helps and let me know how it goes!
@@Kennymolotov well i have talked to them, and they said since i dont have much experience, there going to have me run parts to plumbers for awhile. They know i want to learn the trade. I show up early always on time. The new guy they hired showed up 2 hours late, on his 2nd day and is always on his phone. But hes going out on jobs. Running parts is not going to help me learn the trade.
Hey friend, find out when they plan on putting you in the job site. Learning the parts is a crucial part to the trade, but I appreciate you’re more interested in the hands on stuff. Try to make a goal with the company to get you into the field. And see how they respond.
ppe
The good old apprentice years .. getting breakfast and lunch for the plumbers.. drilling holes, and being verbally abused by the plumbers cause they had a miserable life at home .. I wish I could go back to that .. NOT !! LoL
@@Jeromez you told him to “ speak up “.. LoL !!! .. I’m trying to picture that moment and it’s hilarious ..
I’m 15. How should I get into plumbing as soon as possible?
Hey CashFNT first thing is most apprenticeships require a high school diploma. So it would be in your best interest to finish high school. Second is follow this video the moment you graduate or even if you want to start trying to get summer jobs in the career ruclips.net/video/bBA3iMm_FvQ/видео.html

Will do!
Ohhhhh the agony of the first two year! Wanted to knock someone in the head to actually do something, not just hand them stuff, glad to hear others had same issues.
Yup David! Those years were nightmarish lol...so glad to be past those days!
@@Kennymolotov I am just past it, barely getting to do anything, but actually am up on the lift now.
It’s slow and steady David! Don’t get discouraged, just a bit more time and you’ll be doing more than you can handle...😊
@@Kennymolotov Never, so I do both Plumbing and HVAC, just passed my mechanical code class, need some more OJT for that, and about to sit for my plumbing code. Next classes I think are Boilers...;and I forget, I do know Boilers is coming up though.
