About Modern Mechanical Services
Modern Mechanical Services is a commercial HVACR and plumbing contractor based in Dallas. We serve commercial real estate, hospitality, private schools, healthcare, multi-site retail, and storage facilities across DFW, Austin, San Antonio, and Houston. Our commercial plumbing division launched in February 2026 and is growing fast — this is a ground-floor seat on the plumbing side of a company that already runs a dialed-in commercial operation.
Requirements:
What You'll Do
· Run commercial plumbing service calls across the DFW metro
· Diagnose and repair on occupied commercial buildings
· Preventive maintenance routes — backflow testing, drain jetting, water heater service, fixture work
· Service and repair water heaters, fixtures, drains, gas lines, and supply lines
· Backfill on project and install work when service volume is light
· Document work cleanly in ServiceTrade so customers and the office know exactly what happened
What We're Looking For
· Current Texas Journeyman Plumber license (TSBPE) — required
· Commercial plumbing service experience
· Clean driving record
· Own hand tools
· Able to work cleanly and professionally in occupied commercial spaces
· Hungry, humble, and smart — we'll take coachability over 25 years of doing it the wrong way
Nice to Have
· Backflow Prevention Assembly Tester (BPAT) endorsement
· Medical gas certification
· Experience with ServiceTrade or similar field service management software
Schedule & On-Call
Monday through Friday, standard daytime hours. Rotating on-call coverage.
Emergencies are emergencies — that's the trade. But we've built dispatch and documentation so our technicians don't get paged at 11pm for something a dispatcher should have handled. Planning and prevention are the product.
Compensation & Benefits
· Company truck use and fuel card (full-time)
· Health, dental, and vision insurance
· Paid time off and paid holidays
· 401(k) available
· Overtime at 1.5x after 40 hours
· Paid continuing education, Journeyman and Master exam prep, backflow and medical gas certifications
How to Apply
Apply through Paylocity. We respond to every qualified applicant.

Overtime pay at 1.5 times the rate for hours over 40 per week boosts total earnings by $10,000-$20,000 yearly for many.
What visa is required for foreign workers seeking plumber jobs in the United States?
USCIS requires an H-2B visa for temporary non-agricultural plumber jobs when U.S. workers are unavailable, with employers obtaining DOL temporary labor certification first. The FY2026 H-2B cap is 66,000 visas (33,000 per half-year), plus up to 64,716 supplemental for returning workers. Prevailing wage minimum is $30.50 per hour nationally for Level II plumbers.
What education and experience are needed to qualify as a plumber in the United States?
A high school diploma or equivalent is required to enter a plumber apprenticeship program registered with DOL. Programs last 4 years, including 8,000 hours of paid on-the-job training and 576 hours of classroom instruction. No prior experience is needed for entry-level positions.
What is the application process and required documents for plumber apprenticeships in the United States?
Apply through DOL-registered sponsors listed on apprenticeship.gov by submitting a high school diploma or GED, government-issued ID, Social Security number, and proof of age 18 or older. The process includes an aptitude test, math assessment, and interview within 30 days of application. Selected apprentices start at 40-50% of journeyman wage, increasing annually.
