A Plumber (General) is responsible for installing, repairing and maintaining pipes and sanitary fixtures in residential, commercial and institutional settings. This may include tasks such as installing new pipes and fixtures, repairing leaks and other issues with existing pipes, and performing routine maintenance to ensure that everything is functioning properly. Plumbers also need to be familiar with different types of pipe materials, plumbing codes, and safety regulations, and they may also be required to provide customer service and answer questions from clients.
