About the Certificate
Description
People give little thought to the plumbing system in their home until the day something goes wrong and they can’t take a hot shower or flush the toilet. In these times, homeowners rely on the skills and knowledge of a plumber who can fix their issue. Plumbers have a lot of responsibilities. Beyond unclogging a drain or pipes, they also install toilets and water heaters, and help maintain the entire system in your home. When a pipe bursts from freezing cold temperatures, who do you call? Your local plumber!
