Residential Service Plumber
Burns & McBride | New Castle, DE Guaranteed 40 Hours Every Week
Build Something New—Without Starting From Scratch
Burns & McBride is launching a residential plumbing department, and we’re looking for an experienced service plumber who wants more than another seat in another truck.
Since 1949, Burns & McBride has earned the trust of homeowners throughout Delaware and the greater Wilmington area by delivering dependable home services and standing behind our work. Now, we’re bringing that same reputation and customer-first approach to residential plumbing.
You’ll have the rare opportunity to help build a new department while benefiting from an established brand, an existing homeowner customer base, and a company that has served the community for more than 75 years. Your experience and ideas will matter as we establish our plumbing standards, processes, and reputation.
We’re looking for a self-driven professional who takes ownership of their day. You diagnose accurately, communicate clearly, present repair and replacement options confidently, and create revenue by educating homeowners—not pressuring them.
Why You’ll Love Working Here
We don’t just offer jobs—we build careers. Here’s what you can expect as part of our team:
Industry-leading compensation: We believe in recognizing and rewarding excellent performance.
Guaranteed 40 hours every week: Count on consistent hours and dependable earning potential.
Fully stocked warehouse and parts runners: Spend less time tracking down materials and more time completing calls.
New, clean, fully stocked truck: Arrive prepared with a professional service vehicle ready for the day’s work.
Comprehensive health benefits: Affordable, high-quality medical, dental, and vision coverage for you and your family.
Paid time off from day one: Start earning PTO immediately because time away from work matters.
401(k) with company match: Build long-term financial security with support from the company.
Parental leave: Receive support as your family grows.
Training and development: Continue building your technical, customer-service, and leadership skills through our Service Professionals Academy and Resource Center.
Annual performance reviews: Receive regular feedback and recognition, with opportunities to be rewarded for your growth and results.
