Our projects range from smaller service assignments to larger commercial and industrial installations, providing opportunities to work on a wide variety of mechanical systems.
Opportunities for advancement into Lead Plumber and Foreperson positions are available for qualified individuals.

● Coordinate daily activities with Hydro’s HVAC, pipefitting, electrical, fire protection, and welding personnel.
● Assist other trades with appropriate mechanical installation and maintenance activities as needed.
● Identify potential conflicts between plumbing installations and other mechanical systems.
● Ensure all work complies with applicable plumbing codes, safety standards, and project specifications.
● Maintain a clean, organized, and safe working environment.
● Communicate professionally with customers, supervisors, coworkers, and other contractors.
● Represent Hydro Mechanical Inc. professionally while working at customer facilities and construction sites.

● Reliable transportation to consistently report to the company facility and assigned job sites as required.
● Must possess and maintain their own basic plumbing hand tools necessary to perform daily job responsibilities.
● Ability and willingness to travel to regional job sites.
● Commitment to job site safety, quality workmanship, and professionalism.
Preferred Qualifications
● Completion of an accredited plumbing apprenticeship program.
● Experience working in industrial plants, manufacturing facilities, hospitals, schools, or municipal buildings.

What We’re Looking For
