District of Columbia Plumbing licenses are regulated by the DC Department of Licensing and Consumer Protection. They govern licensure for Journey, Master, and Contractor Plumbers. Check the information below to see exactly what the state requires prior to filing an application.
We have the books, courses, and professionals ready to help you pass. All our training is offered in an online self-paced format. Our exam prep is not only designed to help you pass your test the first time, but is also designed to teach you valuable knowledge for your career. The courses are available from almost any device, any time. We hope that you will make RocketCert your home to help you obtain your District of Columbia Journeyman or Master Plumbing with Gas License.
A Journeyman or Master Plumber can design, install, repair or remove plumbing fixtures intended to receive and discharge water, liquid, or water-carried wastes into the drainage system with which they are connected. With this classification you may also install, test or operate any nonindustrial type of gas appliance and piping system from the outlet of the meter set assembly, or from the outlet of the service regulator when a meter is not provided.
Applicants must meet at least one of the following criteria
Pass the required Journeyman Plumbing with Gas exam
Pass the required Master Plumbing with Gas Exam
To apply for your license, contact the DC Department of Licensing and Consumer Protection at 202-671-4500 or visit the DLCP website to submit online.
District of Columbia does not require continuing education for Journeyman and Master Plumbers. District of Columbia has no reciprocity agreements for Master or Journeyman Plumbers.
With RocketCert, our education is written by a combination of professional educators and industry professionals. We pride ourselves on providing industry leading customer service. Also, if you find a better original price on any online course that we offer, we will beat it by 10%.
The first step is to obtain pre-approval for your exam. This can be obtained after creating an account on the District of Columbia Board of Industrial Trades website. Testing centers are setup throughout District of Columbia.
Preparing to pass the State exam is a critical part of the licensing process. Failing the exam can result in substantial delays before you are able to work under your license. We offer industry leading exam prep and all of the required books, at an unbeatable price.
After studying with RocketCert, you will be on your way to passing the required State exam(s) (see below).
