The United Association of Journeymen and Apprentices of the Plumbing and Pipe Fitting Industry of the United States and Canada, the parent Union of Local # 13 in Rochester, has a long and proud history that goes back more than 100 years.
Before and during the Civil War, plumbers and pipefitters were organized in many major cities of the United States.
The first strong, long-lasting local Unions were established in the boom construction decade, 1879-1889, when United States population growth accelerated.
UA Local 13, Plumbers and Pipefitters was chartered in 1890.
For over 120 years we've been protecting the health of our nation through our Plumbing, Pipefitting and HVAC Service work.
Our contractors employ the members of local 13 in many construction Industries.
We work in the Heavy Industrial, Commercial and Residential Sectors.
We also specialize in HVAC Service throughout our jurisdiction, where heating & cooling systems are vital to the economy during our warm summers and cold winters.
Our members are required to graduate from the UA Internationals certified and accredited Joint Apprenticeship Training Program which produces the best Journeymen in the industry.
State-of-the-art training is the key to producing highly-skilled craftsmen - the kind of specialists that are in demand in today's challenging work environment.
Top-notch training in the Plumbing, Pipefitting, and HVAC-Refrigeration trades is more than just education, information and classroom sessions.

The common term for a group of workers looking to join a union is "Organizing."
Workers organize for various reasons, be it to improve their working conditions, increase their pay or benefits, and/or to create a better working environment.
The American Promise is that if we go to school, work hard, and become a productive and faithful employee, we can then expect to support a family, raise and educate our children, enjoy a healthy and fulfilling life and retire with dignity.
We weren't supposed to have to win the lottery, or be a corporate executive to enjoy the American dream.
