## About this Journeyman Plumber package

Get the focused preparation you need to pass your 2026 Virginia Journeyman Plumber Exam with this comprehensive, easy-to-follow Study Guide—built specifically around the 2024 International Plumbing Code (IPC) and aligned with Virginia licensing requirements. This guide is designed to simplify complex topics, reinforce key concepts, and give you the exact tools needed to walk into your exam with confidence.

## How does the Journeyman Plumber exam work?

The Journeyman Plumber exam is a tradesman exam: one person is licensed, and a contracting firm in that trade also needs its own Board for Contractors license.

- Tradesman licenses are issued by the Board for Contractors through its Tradesmen program, for electrical, plumbing, HVAC and gas fitting.
- The board has to approve you before PSI lets you schedule. The exam fee is $100 for journeyman and $125 for master.
- Pre-license education is required, and renewals need 3 hours of continuing education for electrical, plumbing and HVAC and 1 hour for gas fitting.
- Residential plumbing and residential HVAC mechanic licenses, added on April 1, 2025, need less experience than a journeyman license.
