Plumbing Apprenticeship Program

We are excited to announce The Drain Guys 2022 Plumbing Apprenticeship Program. We want to give back to the community and help the next generation of plumbers enter the workforce. Did you know the average age of a plumber is 55 years old? Also, for every 5 master plumbers that retire, only 1 enters the workforce. We need to help and encourage our youth to get into plumbing.

They will learn how to clear drains, install and repair water heaters, fix toilets, replace sewer lines and more. After finishing the program, this person will have the experience needed to operate as a full time plumber.

Who Will Win?

We will review all applications and pick the person we feel is most deserving of the apprenticeship. We are looking for a hardworking individual who ideally already has done some basic plumbing work. We will pick a winner in February 2022.
