PLUMBERS
 
 
What is a Plumber?
 
A plumber is a skilled craftsperson who installs and repairs pipe systems that carry water, waste drainage, natural and medical gas in buildings. They join pipes and install fixtures like bathtubs, toilets, dishwashers, and water heaters. Often they design these systems or they may work from blueprints and drawings. They have the very important job of helping to keep water safe for you to use for drinking and bathing.
