This was so helpful. As a plumbing technician my employer kept refusing to sponsor me for the state test. But I only work with in one county. Thank you.
For the State Exam here in Florida you do not need a sponsor. You can actually take the test pass it and then in the application just put down what was the company you work for with the license number of the company. you do not need a signature of a contractor. But for the County license you need a signature.
I was there too didn’t hear anything good from anyone it was my 3rd try one guy on his 7th attempt another on his 9th I don’t think they’ve passed anyone in the last 6-12 months
@@PatchplumbingThis was my first attempt. I failed unfortunately, 61.88. But I was also missing 4 of the books so there was atleast 10-15 questions that i bombed because of that. Ive touched up on my Iso's and will have the missing books and Im taking it again this next go around. Im pretty confident that I will pass. Good luck to you
Thank you for taking the time to comment in this video. If you have a State of Florida License and took the State of Florida Business exam then the answer is No. You will NOT have to take the Business Exam again.
Yes! it does. you might have to take the Business Exam here and the board might exempt you from the trade exam. This is something you might want to check with the State of Florida DBPR Board.
I'm license plumber in tx I want to move to Florida can I transfer the license how long dose it take I want to own my plumbing company in florida not to work for any one how can I do that ?
The State of Florida will take into account the experience from other States but is always best to check the requirements directly with the State before proceeding with the process of taking the exam. www.myfloridalicense.com
Does Florida have a journeyman plumber license? I’m journeyman plumber in Minnesota and I’m moving to Florida in a few months. Or would I work under a shops license?
The House Bill 735 does not apply to licenses that are under Florida Statue 489. This means the licenses that will be affected will only be specially licenses, for example: painting, carpentry, tile and marble and many more but not Plumbing, AC, GC, Irrigation, Mechanical, Underground, Glass & Glazing.
Thank you! I have about 6 years of Fire Sprinkler experience ranging from apprentice to foreman, an FDEP Distribution Level 3 license, I passed the level 2 test but needed 2 more months worth of hours to hold said level 2 license before I moved back to fire sprinklers. Nearly 4 years worth of distribution experience with a local water purveyor. Would any of that experience translate to what I need to become a licensed plumbing contractor?

Hi I have a bachelors degree in Computer Science and I would like a career change to plumbing. What's the process to become a plumber? I read that if I have a college degree I juat have to complete a 1 year of exp, is that true? What's the whole process? Thanks
This is who I personally used for my application. I was able to get my license in less than 1 month. Let her know Gabriel from Contractors prep school send you. Annette Mota 3419 Galt Ocean Drive, Suite A Fort Lauderdale, FL 33308 954.567.0013 X 12 - Office 954.567.3401 - Fax www.apiprocessing.com
I was told if you have a degree in Florida doesn’t have to be a construction/plumbing bachelors degree. All you need is 1 year of experience to qualify for the experience. Is this true?
Thank you for taking the time to watch the video and comment. I do not speak Portuguese but I do speak Espanol. If you would like to contact me directly call us and ask for Gabriel 954 971 5383
Before taking the Test No. You can take the Exam with no experience. When you pass the exam and would like to activate your license then you will have to provide proof of experience .
You will need a total of 4 years, but because you have a 2yrs degree the state might give you 1 to 2 years this means you need the remaining of years as working experience.
Im sorry but the State of Florida is very specific on the Codes you can take to the exam. Although these codes are made with the International Code council they are revised by the Florida board and the Florida Building codes are made. You must bring the FLORIDA BUILDING CODES. Great question!
I'm from California but have been working under someone else's plumbing license for 8 years. Can I use that experience by providing say tax documents that show that I worked for them? Does anyone need to sign off on it?
