It takes 4 years working under a licensed plumber to get your license. 4 years to hook up pipes! Some occupations like electricians I can see. It's very dangerous and mistakes in installation can kill others.


A bad plumber can wreck your entire house. Let's keep close tabs on them.

I'm not sure what good licensed florists are though other than a revenue stream.

I agree, but 4 years?

It's not rocket surgery.

If they can pass the test after 1 or 2 years, they should be licensed.

Why do you think plumbers charge so much? There are very few of them due to this law.

Have you ever asked a plumber to show you his license?

I doubt half of them are licensed.
