The trades, across many industries, are currently facing a significant shortage of skilled workers. Trades jobs such as plumbers, electricians, carpenters, as well as HVAC technicians are in high demand. A report by the NAOB, 77% of contractors are struggling to find workers. Demand for skilled tradespeople is outpacing supply. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects a 10% growth rate for HVAC technician jobs and a 9% growth rate for electricians through 2030, which is faster than the average for all occupations.

I sat down with Frank Denton, Chairman of the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners, to explore the dynamic world of plumbing in Texas. Frank has licensed more plumbers in Texas than almost anyone else, attributing this success to the state's robust economy and abundance of opportunities, especially when compared to neighboring states like Oklahoma. We delve into the challenges and potential of establishing reciprocity agreements for journeyman plumbers from other states, highlighting Louisiana and Arkansas as key examples. Frank explains the critical need for skilled tradesmen in times of natural disasters, such as hurricanes, and how these agreements could aid states like Florida in emergency situations. Frank's journey also includes his tenure as Chairman of the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation during a tumultuous period when the Sunset Commission considered abolishing the licensing and plumbing board for Texas plumbers. He shares his insights on Governor Greg Abbott's decision to sustain the TSBPE and the passion and pride that drew him to the role of chairman. We discuss the core values of the tradesmen, evidenced by a 7,000-person rally at the state capitol in Austin, where no trash was left behind. Frank addresses the lengthy process of becoming a Master Plumber in Texas and the need for more specific requirements for apprentices. Frank's optimism shines through as he talks about the impact of institutions like Collin College on the future of plumbing in Texas. Despite the impressive statistic that 98.7% of plumbers in Texas have no complaints against them, he emphasizes the importance of maintaining high standards to protect the reputation of the profession. Join us for an insightful conversation with Frank Denton as we uncover the intricacies and values of the plumbing industry in Texas and beyond.

Danielle Putnam, president of The New Flat Rate, joins us today to talk about her journey to get to where she is today.

She got involved with a startup, lived her dream of setting foot on the NY stock exchange, and then moved back again to help her dad. That's when the new flat rate was born, a menu pricing system for home service contractors. Since then she has begun to offer Freedom Builders, a ride along & coaching program. Got involved with Trade Jobs to help fill the skilled trades gap (launching in October). And sits on the advisory board for Women in HVACR.

Trade Jobs In Demand (8/26/22) by 96.5 WKLH

In this episode: college hacking, career hacking, the power of starting early, trade jobs, and salesforce careers. How many times in the past have you been listening to this podcast and thought, "I wish I knew about this when I was younger." Well today's guest Zach actually had the foresight to start using the lessons he learned from this podcast at the ripe age of 18, and the results may be envy inducing! It's worth noting that not starting your FI journey at the age of 18 doesn't discredit you from a happy and financially independent life. But it's also worth noting that the sooner you start, the sooner you'll be able to reap the rewards, so start today!
