What does the day look like?
You normally work 35–40 hours a week. Most of the day is planned work: rough-in piping on new buildings, bathroom and kitchen refits, boiler and radiator servicing, and commercial maintenance rounds. You read drawings; cut, thread, bend and join pipes; and install sinks, toilets, water heaters and appliances. Tools include wrenches, levels, manometers, pressure-test gauges, pipe cameras, drain augers, press-fitting guns and multimeters.
Fixing a tap or clearing a household drain—the familiar image of plumbing—is the smaller call-out part. The rest includes ordering materials, preparing quotes and invoices, completing compliance certificates and returning to fix defects. Evening and weekend work is common, and emergency on-call duties can include nights.
