Frequently Asked Questions

Plumbing families show up at company picnics, birthday parties, and new-baby announcements looking for pride apparel that a supply house does not sell. "Plumber Wife" tees, "Future Plumber" baby onesies, and "My Dad Fixes What You Flush" kid shirts fill that gap. The pieces double as gifts: a spouse wants a matching shirt for the company holiday party, or a new baby announcement leans on the family trade for a laugh. Here is what works for plumbing family and gift apparel.

The spouse or partner. Self-purchases for a company picnic or holiday party.
Parents. Buy "Plumber Mom" or "Plumber Dad" apparel when their child enters the trade.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I run a family line separate from the crew shop?

Yes. Family pride pieces can live in the same shop with their own product pages, or you can run a second shop dedicated to gifts.

Whats the most popular plumbing family piece?

The "Plumber Wife" tee or cropped hoodie consistently ranks highest. The "Future Plumber" baby onesie is a close second.

Do you carry baby sizes?

Youth sizes are in the catalog for kid pieces. Check the current product lineup in your shop for the smallest available baby sizes.

How fast can a gift-ordered shirt arrive for a birthday?

About a week from order to door. For birthday or anniversary gifts, order 10 days ahead.
