Plumbing

Local 51 plumbers install and repair the water, waste disposal, drainage and gas systems in commercial and industrial buildings as well as in homes across Southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

Local 51 plumber apprentices undergo extensive classroom and on the job training over five years before they become union journeymen plumbers. In fact, to become a union plumber we require them to perform 1230 classroom hours and 10,000 on the job hours---far above what is required for licensing in both Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
Local 51 plumbers strictly adhere to local, state and national plumbing codes' ensuring your project is completed in uniform fashion. Our continuing education programs provide union plumbers with the most up-to-date knowledge of building codes, plumbing techniques and safety procedures.

Local 51 journeymen plumbers are experts in a variety of areas including:

* Municipal Water Treatment Plants
* Commercial Waste Water Treatment Facilities
* Back-flow Prevention & Industrial Safeguards
* Medical Gas Installation
* Commercial & Residential Plumbing Fixtures
