Today's pipe-systems workers still come to the rescue when you have a clogged toilet or leaky pipe, but the profession has evolved to include technicians with high tech tools who take pride in being environmental and public-safety guardians.
Plumbing jobs aren't as dirty as you might think, industry veterans point out, and they'll never be outsourced. In fact, if you're up for the challenge, opportunities abound.
"We're struggling with plumbing not being very sexy," says Paul Abrams, a spokesman for Roto-Rooter. "There aren't enough plumbers to do all the work we get calls for. It's problematic now; in five years, it could be a crisis."
It's not just home-repair plumbing; new-building construction is booming. Overall, the industry needs 20 percent more workers a year, says Gerald Kennedy Jr., vice president of education for the Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors National Association. "The opportunities are limitless."
