This position may be a great fit if you:
You are the type of plumber who notices when something is not perfectly level, aligned, supported, insulated, labeled or installed correctly.
You don't just want to get the job done — you want to do it properly.
You enjoy looking at a mechanical room and figuring out how everything should work together. You are comfortable asking questions, solving problems and taking ownership of your work.
We are looking for someone who can eventually be trusted to walk into a high-end home, understand the drawings, coordinate with other trades, make good decisions in the field, and leave behind an installation that you are proud of.
If that sounds like you, we would like to hear from you.
Pay: $45.00-$75.00 per hour
Expected hours: 40.0 per week
