Plumber Resume Example made with Resume Star

Plumbing contractors look for your license level, the kind of work you have done and whether you can work to code without supervision. Make those easy to find.

Tips for a plumber resume

  • State your license level. Apprentice, journeyman or master, with the state and license number if you are comfortable sharing it.
  • Say what kind of work you do. Residential service, new construction, commercial or industrial, and specialties like gas lines, backflow or water heaters.
  • Show code knowledge. Mention the plumbing codes you work to and your record passing inspections.
  • List tools and equipment. Camera inspection, jetting, pipe threading, PEX and copper, and a valid driver's license if you drive a service van.
  • Use numbers. Service calls per day, jobs completed and customer ratings.
