I started plumbing when I was 17. My dad’s been plumbing for 30+ years. I’m 25 now and can outdo him on most jobs. He’s super proud and impressed. It’s an amazing feeling. Good luck man!
@Sam Bromley a lot of what I teach in other areas crosses the lines. When I do training on networking or LinkedIn I get all different trades and professions in there. Are you enjoying your apprenticeship?
@@RogerWakefield Yes very much so. I started out at a trade school and I graduated from that and now I'm employed full time doing residential and commercial wiring and loving it.
Just what I needed to hear. Been a journeyman plumber 2 years. I actually started as an hvac and sheetmetal apprentice, but the company I started at was small enough that the HVAC guys could plumb and all had apprentice cards and the plumbers could hang duct and run refrigerant lines if needed depending on what work we had going on. Guys I started apprenticeship with have been getting their master license. I just finished detailing a 43 story highrise and feeling the confidence to sign up for the test.
@@RogerWakefield Austin, TX. Local 286. Currently working for The Porter in the CAD dept. I've been having lots of fun since I got in the trades fresh out of college. My grandpa is a retired UA fitter/welder. He too had lots of fun and says he wouldn't have wanted to do anything else.
I really appreciate your attitude about teaching apprentices, journeymen and master plumbers. I'm a first year apprentice at 31 and am finding that many companies seem to not want their employees to be licensed because they may go start their own business and it's looked down upon, like a betrayal or being disloyal. I like that you genuinely want others to do well and it seems that your attitude has served your well and probably it's not even competition. Plumbing is obviously in high demand. I plan to keep learning and growing with the trade and don't want to be around comfortable people, who knows where that will lead. Thanks for all you bring to the table.
I was 22 when I got into the construction industry unfortunately in the middle of recession and I felt I was late like always, people getting laid off and I was trying to learn a trade. I felt I was late for everything and always tried things at the wrong time and little did I know I will fall in love with the Plumbing trade. I then worked for a plumbing company for 8 years; that let me to my master License at 30 years young. I obtained my license 4 years ago.
@Crypto Indeed thank you for sharing your story. I am always telling people, any age, this is a great profession to get into. You can build yourself a wonderful life in this profession. Where are you located?
@@RogerWakefield thank you sir! I am in Miami Florida. I currently own my own business, I am in the service sector. I am taking notes from all the info that you provide. All the advice. Suggestions you provide are greatly appreciated.
I’m a electrician (2nd year) and get a lot of good tips from you my friend! Wish there was a master electrician on UA-cam who could guide us like you do the plumbers. Thank you
Thanks Mr Wakefield! Just what I needed to hear I'm about to do my aptitude test for the local plumbing union, and I hope one day to do be a master plumber and also stay down to earth just like yourself
You’re a good man. I loved the story about the messy house. I see a lot of people in my trade treat people differently based on any number of factors. I take a lot of pride in doing my best work no matter who I am doing it for. I figure no matter who I am doing the work for, my work is a reflection of me and my work ethic and morals. That doesn’t change based on who I’m doing the work for. As long as they aren’t causing direct harm to anyone, I’ll do my best.
Great job my friend I am a apprentice plumber and I work for a huge company, I have help people and charge them low. Like you say it feels good to help others.
Thank you for the video again! I checked the TSPBE website, if a journeyman gone through the dep of labor apprenticeship program then only waiting one year to take a master test.
Hi master, I am so grateful to your efforts .every thing you do to teach and educate people ..because it's the values that matter at the end of the day
Always loved your content. I'm not a plumber or even in the trades I work in IT but recently made the jump from a member of a large team to a decision maker in a smaller team and I find your advice and work ethic inspiring and believe all professionals can learn allot from you. Keep it up !!!
kinda wish the pool industry had this...been in the industry for 7 years. Handle 208, 240, 120, 12-48v. Install steep pipes to pool gas hears and replace gas valves. but no tests to take. my test is when I explain things to homeowners. great content sir!!! thanks for paying it forward!!!
I’ve been in the handyman trade for 35 years. The plumbing industry as well as electrical, carpentry, are all screaming for help. I had formally been trained in HVAC so I got my feet wet doing all the trades. I’m still learning to this day. I see people get ripped off all the time.
Roger... I'm listening to you and thinking to my self - gosh, this guy is so me... But, I'm European plumber and things there run differently (ruin actually, not run). I didn't learn anything new in your channel, but I always recommending it to other people thinking about plumber trade.
@Jimmy’s Adventures thank you for the feedback. I love our community! I got my Masters in the early 2000’s I will check and find the exact year. My memory is getting bad. I heard it is the second thing to go...
Mike Rowe of Dirty Jobs was touting how much you can make in plumbing but I rather listen to a real plumber. Plumbing is not for everyone and you shouldn't go into it just for how much money you think you can earn as a plumber but love what you are doing.
Jfurman790 I believing in giving back and helping others grow. I think that's why I love networking and building relationships with other people. Thank you for commenting!
Thanks Rodger appreciate the advice very good to know im about to start my apprenticeship and your vids are giving me a big time heads up on my new trade i just subscribed and look forward to watching all your vids keep doing what your doing brother and be well .
Truth goes a long way In the end you win. Example.. Plumber a said service line has a leak. I said no leak. Prove to customer she had no leak. I got a customer for life. 😁
Go to your local union and apply for the apprenticeship, if you get in to the next class cycle they will set you up with a shop. If you want to go non union just walk into any and every open shop and apply, hard to not get a job if they see you have drive.
Just found your UA-cam and I love the material you put out. Got my apprentice license but very little experience. Should I try to be an apprentice with a union or non-union?
No Master Plumber in Washington State. I am a 25 year Journeyman. I have contemplated moving to TX as I have family in the Austin area. Is there a good study guide for Master Plumber in TX?
Emotional Idiot are you already in plumbing and wanting to learn more? Or, are you just trying to get started and want to learn about it? Also, where are you located?
@@RogerWakefield Thanks for the reply Roger! I'm 20 years old and am currently on a waiting list. I'm from Montreal Canada. I know pretty much nothing about it and would like to get a head start before trade school begins! :)
The Crab Mentality. Pretty sure it spans all professions; the "boss" doesn't want to teach you to leave. Many will tell you outright.They see it as a loss in investment and a betrayal. That hit close to home for me as I have seen it many times over my career. Hard lesson indeed.
Hello Master, I spoke with some plumbers about witch Code book year I need to study for a master plumbing license, they said 2015 IPC + IFGC or 2015 UPC. but when I checked the TSBPE website, It says 2012? can you please confirm? I dont want to purchase the wrong book. Also what study materials would you recommend for a master P test? Thank you!
Azzeddine Choukri Thank you! Yes, I am from Texas. I waited longer than 4 years to take the master exam. Just didn’t need it before. Now I do. Good luck on your pursuit.
I will get a link to you about the study guide that I use. I have it in some of the videos about becoming a plumber. I also talk about how to study with it. Great information if you want to do it right!
Thank you for your knowledge. I’m just starting out in the trade. I finished a 100 hour service tech course which I believe gave me a good foundation. However, I just retired from the military and my job in the army had nothing to do with Plumbing. Could you help me fix up my resume to attract future employers. My ultimate goal is to become a licensed plumber. Thank you in advance.
Moral be a boss a company owner isn't a easy task I know what's I talking about is a nightmare when everything come on u shoulder but sometimes u have to be human helping other on needed 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Running a business sounds like being a homeowner or a handyman. Know what you can do, what you can learn to do - and what you should hire others to do.
Roger, I’m 46 yrs old, always had a passive interest in plumbing, hate my office job, and was considering going to the local county college which offers a plumbing course to become a full-time plumber. My question is, am I to old to get into plumbing? Would anyone hire a 46-47 year old apprentice? I keep myself in top physical condition, and I have always been mechanical inclined when I need/chose to be. Just give me your honest opinion please. Thank you! Love your videos...
chad holland I have always felt that if you think you can do something you probably can. I have seen 55 year old apprentices get into this profession and make it. I have also seen 20 year old young men get in and fail. To me it is all mental attitude. If you are willing to get in and work hard to be the very best nothing can stop you! Do you think you can do it? Where are you located?
Roger Wakefield Thank you for your response. I have No Doubt I can do the job, and I want to do it. Hard work or working hard has never been an issue for me. However, we all know the world runs on connections, politics, etc. So, my biggest concern is if someone will even afford me the opportunity as an apprentice, especially after I invest money to take the courses, due to my age. That’s my only hangup right now. I’m in southern New Jersey about 25 mins from Philadelphia. Thank you!
"Does not cost much". Here in Germany you have to invest about 8k Euros (8,750 USD) and at least 4 Years of schooling to become a master in your trade. And you need to be a journey man to start school, too.
Some of the cost may be covered by your boss if he's nice enough and can benefit from it since a master title is required to train apprentices which your company will need to do sooner or later. You can also request financial assistance from a government agency which will cover some of the cost for you if you do it full time and get good enough grades. Forgot which agency it is tho.
@@nucleus691 You speak of the "Meister BaFög". Do not forget that you will have to pay half of it back as soon as you earn money after you ended masters school.
There's things in life more important than money. You may get more money playing hardball, but when you're in your deathbed. God don't care about how rich you are. If you screw people over, and only care about the bottom line. You'll be wealthy, but miserable. If you are able to get by, but be modest enough to think about others. Your cup will always be full. Don't think trying to feel better all by yourself. You'll never find it. You'll find happiness in helping your community. That - more than anything is what this world needs to learn. You'll be happier loving your neighbors than screwing them over.
So hard to find a good plumber. Big box guys just want to rip you off. I had a single leak on a pex tube, they wanted nearly $10k to replace the pex and the manifold and the hot water tank. House was 9 years old. I have an electrician I trust, I need a DFW plumber I can trust. Edit: Just wanted him to make me whole (ie, fix the leak). I ended up buying tools to fix it myself. I don't want to fix it myself, I want the satisfaction of a professional.
Nothing can stop Deaf guy like me when you have issues with subtitles to English like somebody else. You'll get judgement with God as soon you go up there. I starting to think you are the problem with deaf people. I don't have to worry about it cause I got my father as a master plumber (33 years, no worries ). If you don't want do what the best way for others, I starting felt like you're problems towards to Deaf people. God and karma has my back anyway!!!!
You have mastered your trade, no you have mastered throughput initial systems, throughout present time systems. Approx every 2-years newly improvised systems arrive. Systems that no plumber has even seen, let alone touched before. You mentioned it yourself, will never surpass 98% journeyman, and or the claimed master plumber, due to futuristic 2% systems mentioned above. No such aspect as knowing everything, enivtable to never exist. Other than a sounds good person verbally claiming he or she left the green hornet within land time forgot within experience. Merely cartoon minded characters, nothing more less Handymen experimenters very high % within being able to provide light problem calls, now feel the Phcc-Service occupation school is completely un-nessesary. Same experimenters best results within a phcc test, 30% at best. Station wagon, two rolls 1/2 × 520" Teflon onne back swing door open cookie cutters. .

Yes visit my store. I have the upc and ipc study guide www.amazon.com/shop/rogerwakefield
You oughta expand to Oklahoma. Many plumbers here are after the mighty dollar rather than doing the right thing.

What does “Lead AP” mean?
"Does not cost much". Here in Germany you have to invest about 8k Euros (8,750 USD) and at least 4 Years of schooling to become a master in your trade. And you need to be a journey man to start school, too.
Some of the cost may be covered by your boss if he's nice enough and can benefit from it since a master title is required to train apprentices which your company will need to do sooner or later. You can also request financial assistance from a government agency which will cover some of the cost for you if you do it full time and get good enough grades. Forgot which agency it is tho.

let me guess that company on the gas leak was rescue rooter? lol
Industrial plumbing looks so complicated
It’s just like the rest of it, once you learn it it’s not too bad.
How much would it be for you to.be my coach?
There's things in life more important than money.
You may get more money playing hardball, but when you're in your deathbed. God don't care about how rich you are.
If you screw people over, and only care about the bottom line. You'll be wealthy, but miserable.
If you are able to get by, but be modest enough to think about others. Your cup will always be full.
Don't think trying to feel better all by yourself. You'll never find it.
You'll find happiness in helping your community.
That - more than anything is what this world needs to learn. You'll be happier loving your neighbors than screwing them over.
Mistake #1 not holding back.
So jealous of your studio...
@HVACtommyboy 91 you can build one just like I did. Where are you located?
I is a high that can’t be explained till you actually get it
It costs 30 grand to get your master license in NYC and even if you pass the test the “board” can still deny your application. Gangsters.
That stinks
if you work alone do you even need a master license?? it is just a business type test if you want employees right??
In Texas you have to have a Master license to even advertise to do plumbing work.
@@RogerWakefieldup here in mass you can advertise and do all the work you want on a journeymans but no employees...
Here in Connecticut you need a master plumbers license no matter what even if you are replacing your neighbors faucet for free.
The only thing a Master can do that a journeyman can't is run a shop. Anything other thing you think you get out of it is illusion.
So hard to find a good plumber. Big box guys just want to rip you off. I had a single leak on a pex tube, they wanted nearly $10k to replace the pex and the manifold and the hot water tank. House was 9 years old. I have an electrician I trust, I need a DFW plumber I can trust. Edit: Just wanted him to make me whole (ie, fix the leak). I ended up buying tools to fix it myself. I don't want to fix it myself, I want the satisfaction of a professional.
What is the difference between a Master and Responsible Plumber?
Responsible master can own business and hire employees but has to have insurance
Jesus loves you
Been plumbing in California for 30+ years and nobody ever asked to see a license. "Master Plumber" what's that?
Nothing can stop Deaf guy like me when you have issues with subtitles to English like somebody else. You'll get judgement with God as soon you go up there. I starting to think you are the problem with deaf people.
