Plumbing codes are very strict, and thus the need for quality plumbing work is high because of the historical health and safety problems associated with poor water supply, sewage removal and the need for communities to prevent disease transmission. Consequently, the certification process for becoming a Master Plumber is a long educational endeavor.
A Master Plumber is one who has demonstrated mastery of the trade of plumbing within the complete aspect of all genre of the craft, or in one specifically. For example: Residential, Commercial, Institutional, Multi-family Dwellings, Underground Municipal, and High Volume, Long Distance Water and Sewage Transmission Systems.
