(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, April 20, 2013 ) San Antonio, TX -- Mr. Plumber Plumbing Co. in San Antonio, Texas, is excited to introduce “Allie the Plumber’s Apprentice.” Allie Perez brings a fresh female voice to an industry generally associated with men. Her interest in the plumbing trade developed while working in operations and business management for Mr Plumber Plumbing Co.
“Every day I worked I wanted to learn more about plumbing in San Antonio,” said Perez. “I started going out on calls with the plumbers and learning how to fix many of the issues found in my own home.”
Along with plumbing do-it-yourself tips and interesting facts, Perez will speak directly to women considering or currently pursuing a career in the plumbing trade, which is comprised of less than 1% female professionals.
Even with the extremely low numbers, the demand for women plumbers remains at a constant high. In fact, teams of all-women plumbing companies are highly popular around the United States and other countries.
“Customers feel safe with a female plumber as most of our customers in the plumbing industry are women,” said Perez.
As Allie progresses, she will share her new knowledge and skills with interested readers. You can follow along with all of her adventures and experiences as she works toward becoming a licensed Master Responsible Plumber on the Mr Plumber blog.
