Becoming a plumber typically starts with an apprenticeship, which combines hands-on experience with classroom learning, allowing individuals to earn while they learn. Apprenticeships last about four years, requiring many hours of training under licensed professionals. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports 762,600 plumbers nationwide, with a median annual wage of $61,550, equivalent to $1,183 per week. In Chico, the average wage for plumbers is $1,092 per week. Trade schools, unions, and platforms like Gild help aspiring plumbers find apprenticeship opportunities, leading to a career with strong earning potential—often exceeding $108,000 annually for experienced professionals.
