Plumbers work for maintenance businesses and travel to various job sites to diagnose and solve plumbing issues. They respond to emergencies like burst pipes and perform routine maintenance to keep plumbing systems safe and functional while preventing future problems like leaks or rusted pipe fittings. Plumbers source the right materials to help homeowners, businesses and government offices maintain their plumbing, enabling appropriate drainage and water flow for indoor and outdoor areas. They enter crawl spaces in homes to solve problems with pipes and make sure they connect properly to indoor plumbing fixtures like water heaters, toilets and sinks.
