Why the company is called Rare Breed
Court Lundberg grew up working on his grandfather’s bison farm. Bison are not cattle. A full grown bison can clear six feet from a standing start, so one weak spot in a fence and the herd is out causing havoc in the next county. That is where “do it right the first time” comes from, and it is not a slogan we bought from an agency.
Court picked the name to attract the plumbers he wanted as much as the customers. His view on pay is on the record: he prices the work so his plumbers can buy a house. His view on experience is that plenty of people do not have twenty years of experience, they have one year of experience repeated twenty times, and the difference between those two people is whether anybody bothered to train them. And the standard he holds the shop to is his own line: good is never good enough.
Now Hiring
Plumber and Plumbing Apprentice
This is the job the company is built around. We hire licensed journeymen, and we hire apprentices with no plumbing background at all, because it is easier to train somebody from scratch than to untrain bad habits. What we will not do is hand you a van and leave you to figure it out.
What you get:
- A stocked truck and current diagnostic tools, including cameras and pressure gauges, so you can diagnose instead of guess
- Ongoing in-house training through Rare Breed Academy, including journeyman exam prep, isometric drawings, and pipe fitting
- A path from apprentice to journeyman with the hours documented and the license support to finish it
- Base pay plus performance incentives, PTO, and full coverage health, vision, and dental insurance
- Work across three shops in Sandy, Bountiful, and Orem, so you are not commuting the length of the valley every day
- A dispatcher and a CX team whose job is to keep your day from falling apart
What we expect:
- You put a gauge on it before you quote a repipe, and a camera down it before you quote a liner
- You explain the work to the homeowner before you start it, and you get their agreement
- You tell people the truth about what they do not need, even when the invoice would have been bigger
- You leave the house cleaner than you found it
- A valid driver’s license with a clean record, and the ability to pass a background check
Requirements: Utah journeyman or apprentice registration with DOPL, or a genuine willingness to start one. Residential service experience helps but is not required for apprentice roles. Attitude is the part we cannot teach.
