A plumber is a professional who is trained in the installation, repair and maintenance of water pipes. Responsibilities include many tasks. Plumbing includes pipes, fixtures and fittings such as sinks, toilets, showers and water heaters. This includes accurate measurement, knowledge of building codes and the ability to work with a variety of materials such as copper, PVC and steel. When plumbing doesn’t work, a plumber needs to diagnose and repair the problem. Whether it’s a leaking well, a broken line, or a clogged drain, plumbers have the skills and tools to solve the problem effectively. Regular maintenance is important to prevent plumbing problems and keep your system in good working order. Plumbers perform inspections, clean drains, measure water pressure, and detect potential problems before they become serious problems. Plumbing emergencies can happen at any time, causing water damage and disrupting daily life. Plumbing teams respond 24/7 to emergencies such as flooding, sewage and major water outages, providing timely solutions to minimize damage and restore operations.
