Plumbers are instrumental to our everyday lives, without them our world would be in deep….. ah, how do I say this….problems? (not the most descriptive word, but, it will do).  Did you know that the word “Plumber” comes from the Latin word “Plumbum” which means “To Lead”, since pipes and joints are meant to lead something through them.

Florida Plumbing Emergency

Think about it, Plumbing is the backbone of a building or house.  If this part is not properly installed, then, “Houston, we have a big problem”.  If anything goes wrong with the core of this structure, then all areas will be heavily affected.  A Plumber is someone who specializes in the installation and repair of pipes which are used to carry water, gas, sewage and waste water (pretty scary stuff should one decide to burst).  Collectively, these pipes are referred to as Plumbing.

Many states require that a would-be Plumber be licensed and take exams on health and safety codes due to the serious consequences of a poorly installed pipe.  When a new building is being constructed, a Plumber is part of the construction crew because they must determine where pipes should lay prior to full construction.

Plumbing is not only limited to liquid lines, some Plumbers go on to obtaining certifications in gas lines for cooking and heating.

In South Florida, a Plumber is often needed after a storm when pressures from windstorms tend to damage internal pipes.  In addition, due to Florida foliage, it is not unusual to see a pipe burst occur due to root entanglement.
