How to grow your plumbing business to $1M+. Systems. Hiring. Pricing. No BS, no fluff.
Where are you on the ladder? Every rung is one decision — hire, price, or build the system. The $1M+ shop is the top rung. The numbers are real.
| Tier | Monthly Gross | Crew | Vans | Take-Home / Mo |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Solo | $15–25K | Just you | 1 | $8–15K |
| Solo + helper | $30–50K | You + 1 | 1–2 | $15–25K |
| 3-tech shop | $60–90K | You + 3 techs + dispatcher | 3 | $25–40K |
| $1M+ shop | $85–125K+ | 5 techs + foreman + service writer | 5+ | $40–60K+ |
Numbers reflect a service-focused plumbing business in a mid-size U.S. market. Each rung up is one decision: hire, price, or system.

Five sections. The same five sections every Trade Guidebook follows. Different trade, same playbook, every time.
State-by-state breakdown. Apprentice hours. Journeyman exam. Master plumber path. Cross-state reciprocity. The exact paperwork in the exact order.
Rough-in, finish, drain, vent, gas, hydronics, fixtures, water heaters, repipes. The skills that move you from helper to lead in 36 months.
Resume, interview, the right shop. How to pick an employer that pays you well and teaches you faster. The shops to avoid.
Truck, tools, insurance, license, software, pricing. The exact week-one setup. First customer playbook. Pricing that pays you, not the truck.
From owner-operator to crew of three to crew of ten. Hire, train, retain. Sell-it-when-you-want margins. The asset behind the trade.
Income by year, by region, by skill. What plumbers actually charge. The mistakes that cost a year. The ones that close the business.
Updated Yearly. Forever Yours.
Every guidebook is updated yearly to reflect new licensing laws, current industry standards, current market rates, and refreshed playbooks. Buy once — every future edition is yours free for life. Major annual updates ship every January. Spot updates for major regulatory changes ship within 60 days.
This is not a textbook. This is the operating manual.
Here is what the same information would cost you anywhere else.

No. The book is written so a complete beginner can read page 1 and walk into an apprenticeship knowing exactly what to expect. If you're already in, the back half is where the real money is.
Licensing is state-by-state — the book covers the path in every state, with the exact regulator, exam, and reciprocity rules.
Digital PDF + ePub, downloadable forever. Lifetime updates included with the Founders edition.
Most plumbers who go independent need to finance the truck and tools. Bad credit kills that. The bundle solves both before you swing the hammer.
The Plumber Guidebook is available now. Pick your tier above, or join the Founders waitlist for $50 off every future guidebook.
