Plumbers and Drainers Licensing Board is the Northern Territory authority that regulates Journeyman registration cards and Advanced Tradesmen plumbers licenses.
Once you have completed your apprenticeship, you may apply for Journeyman registration as a drainer or plumber. As a registered journeyman, you may perform draining and plumbing work supervised by an Advanced Tradesman.
In order to carry supervise apprentices or journeymen, or to complete plumbing and drainage work in your own right, you must hold an Advanced Tradesman licence.
In order to become a licenced Advanced Tradesman, you require the following:
Lodge your plumbing licence application with the Territory Business Centre in Alice Springs, Darwin or Tennant Creek, or send it by email or conventional mail. In addition to the standard requirements, you must also provide evidence of access to Australian Standard ASNZS3500.
