Job description
Oakum Plumbing & Heating Inc.
Bowen Island / North Shore, BC
Full-Time | 4-Day Work Week (Monday–Thursday)
We Are Hiring for Two Positions.
Oakum Plumbing & Heating Inc. is growing and currently hiring:
- Journeyman Plumber – Service Division
- Journeyman Plumber – High-End Residential New Construction
If you specialize in one — or enjoy doing both — we'd like to talk.
We are a growing residential plumbing and mechanical company serving Bowen Island and the North Shore. We focus on quality installs, strong systems, and a crew culture built around respect and work-life balance.
This is not high-volume production plumbing. We do it right.
Service Division Responsibilities

- Residential troubleshooting
- Minor renovations
- Professional interaction with homeowners
Ideal for someone who:
- Enjoys diagnosing and solving problems
- Is clean, organized, and confident with clients
- Can work independently
New Construction Responsibilities
- Rough-ins and finishing for high-end custom homes
- Reading and interpreting drawings
- Coordinating with builders and other trades
- Installing well-designed, long-lasting plumbing systems
Ideal for someone who:
- Takes pride in layout and clean installs
- Has experience in custom residential construction
- Wants to build quality systems, not rush jobs
What We're Looking For
- Red Seal / Journeyman Plumber (strong 4th year apprentices may be considered)
- Valid driver's license
- Positive attitude and team mindset
- Pride in clean, professional work
What We Offer
- $40–$50 per hour (based on experience)
- 4-day work week (Monday–Thursday)
- Every Friday–Saturday–Sunday off
- Paid 30-minute lunch break daily
- Paid 30 minutes travel time per day
- Extended health and dental benefits
- Steady, year-round work
- Strong crew culture
- Real work-life balance
Why Oakum?
You'll actually enjoy going to work.
We've built a company where people work hard Monday to Thursday and still have time for family, hobbies, and life outside the job.
If you're looking for strong pay, a solid crew, and long-term stability — this is the place.
Apply through Indeed with your experience and we'll connect.
