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 to five years, requiring many hours of training under licensed professionals. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are approximately 736,000 plumbers nationwide, with a steady job growth projected at 6% from 2023 to 2033. In Torrington, CT, apprentices earn an average of $715 per week, with an annual overtime average of $4,800. Trade schools, unions, and platforms like Gild help aspiring plumbers find apprenticeship opportunities, leading to a career with strong earning potential—often exceeding $80,000 annually for experienced professionals.
