Residential plumbing recruiting

Five plumbing hires. A more focused search.

Steve’s faced a limited pool of licensed plumbers and too many unqualified applicants. Yellowstone focused the search on residential service experience and journeyman-level talent.

01

A narrow talent pool, not a lack of applications

For Steve’s Plumbing & Heating, the challenge was finding qualified people in a limited licensed-plumber market. Unqualified applications did not solve the need for residential service experience.

Yellowstone’s recruiting work focused on the trade itself: residential service plumbers and journeyman-level talent.

02

Early hires the client could feel

In a July 2026 account update, the client reported that two hires had already started and described the lead plumber as re-energized. The feedback offered an early picture of how those additions were being received by the team.

The public review below adds another part of the client’s perspective: relief from the recruiting workload.

03
