dubak00 asked:


I have read online that plumbers will charge anywhere from $50 to $125 per hour. That translates into $100,000 to $250,000 per year. Do plumber’s really have that kind of earning power?

   If they work independ it can be from 50.00 to a 100.00
   If working for a company it depends on the employer.
   some may get 35.00 to 45.00. the company will charge more, so, they can make a profit.
   Some may get less but offered benefits.25 to 28.00.

   If they are good at what they do.Try to find an enormous company that need plumbing work done.If you intend to make dollars like that,you must be jam good in your professional trade.In order to gain recognition in your field you may need to do a few free lance jobs.Like if the customer pay for (2)visits the third one is free.You may need a wet suit,a router Rutter,a sump pump,draino,a large mokey wrench.And whatever else you feel you may need to get the job done.
