There are several benefits to a career in plumbing, and at Wisler Plumbing and Air, we’re always hiring. If you’re interested, you can check out WislerJobs.com. Keep reading for a few of the reasons you might want to consider it.
Stability
Plumbing is a very stable career. I don’t want to say it’s economy proof, but it’s definitely economy resistant. We provide essential services. That’s creates a lot of stability, no matter what is going on in the world.
We’re Problem Solvers
When you go into someone’s home, it’s usually because they’re experiencing a problem. They’ve got a leak or no hot water. Maybe the toilet isn’t working. It can be a very scary and frustrating situation for a homeowner.
When you solve their problems, you get to be the hero. You can take someone’s major concern and resolve it. It’s a direct impact that changes lives in that moment.
It’s Hands-On
Plumbing is very hands-on and is typically an outside job. Some can’t imagine sitting at a desk inside all day, so the trade can really speak to those who don’t like to be cooped up.
And Ever-Changing
Unlike a factory job where you do the same thing over and over, plumbing is ever-changing. Each home is a little different, each client is a little different, and there are new technologies coming out regularly within the industry. That’s a tremendous learning opportunity. When someone is learning, generally speaking, that increases their value and income potential. So that can be very exciting as well.
Like I said at the top, we’re always hiring. And most of our plumbers come to us with zero experience. We teach them the trade and increase their value at a career level, then they reap the income rewards.
If you’re looking to get into the trade, go to WislerJobs.com and start the process there. For anything else, call us at 540-483-9382.
