Description

Criterion Plumbers LLC – Idaho Falls, ID

“The Standard for Excellence”

  • Pay: $20:00 – $23.00/hourly (based on experience & year in apprenticeship) with 3% commission or
  • $28:00 - $33:00/hourly without commission
  • Employment Type: Full-Time | Stable, Year-Round Work

The Role (Plain & Simple)

We’re hiring one service plumbing technician to handle basic residential plumbing repairs while working closely with a senior-level field supervisor for complex diagnostics and system-level issues.

Your main objective is to deliver exceptional 5-star customer service on every visit — setting the stage for a great client outcome, building trust with the homeowner, and acting as the first line of defense inside the home.

You are not expected to solve everything yourself.

You will

  • Complete the immediate repair professionally and correctly
  • Communicate clearly, respectfully, and honestly with homeowners
  • Identify potential underlying or long-term plumbing concerns
  • Work directly with a field supervisor, who will take over for advanced diagnostics and present any long-term or system-level solutions to the client
  • This role is not sales-driven and does not require advanced diagnostics. Success comes from workmanship, professionalism, communication, and clean hand offs — not up-selling.
  • Technical Scope — What You Need to Know

You are expected to be competent (or actively learning) in basic residential service repairs, including

  • Leaky faucets & dripping shower heads
  • Running toilets & basic toilet clogs (auger-level)
  • Under-sink leaks, P-traps, and exposed piping
  • Garbage disposal jams & resets
  • Dishwasher drainage issues (air gaps, hoses, knockouts)
  • Knowing when an issue is basic vs. needs escalation
  • Advanced work (mainline camera inspections, gas work, system replacements, complex diagnostics) is handled by senior technicians and field supervisors.

What the Job Actually Looks Like

  • Arrive on time, in uniform, ready to work
  • Enter customer homes professionally and respectfully
  • Diagnose the issue, explain it clearly, and perform the repair
  • Use standard service tools and approved repair methods
  • Leave the workspace cleaner than you found it
  • Follow a repeatable service process that supports you — not micromanages you

Requirements

  • Actively enrolled in the Idaho Plumbing Apprenticeship Program
  • (or already a licensed Journeyman)
  • Clean driving record & valid driver’s license
  • Drug-free workplace
  • Professional appearance and strong communication skills
  • Coach-able mindset — able to follow established processes
  • Comfortable running single-job service calls independently

Why Join Criterion Plumbers

  • Competitive hourly pay with clear growth tied to skill progression
  • Consistent service work — no feast-or-famine scheduling
  • Defined advancement path from basic service → intermediate → advanced
  • Hands-on training and mentorship from experienced plumbers
