About Modern Mechanical Services
Modern Mechanical Services is a commercial HVACR and plumbing contractor based in Dallas. We serve commercial real estate, hospitality, private schools, healthcare, multi-site retail, and storage facilities across DFW, Austin, San Antonio, and Houston. Our commercial plumbing division launched in February 2026 and is growing fast — this is a ground-floor seat on the plumbing side of a company that already runs a dialed-in commercial operation.
Requirements:
What You'll Do
· Run commercial plumbing service calls across the DFW metro
· Diagnose and repair on occupied commercial buildings
· Preventive maintenance routes — backflow testing, drain jetting, water heater service, fixture work
· Service and repair water heaters, fixtures, drains, gas lines, and supply lines
· Backfill on project and install work when service volume is light
· Document work cleanly in ServiceTrade so customers and the office know exactly what happened
What We're Looking For
· Current Texas Journeyman Plumber license (TSBPE) — required
· Commercial plumbing service experience
· Clean driving record
· Own hand tools
· Able to work cleanly and professionally in occupied commercial spaces
· Hungry, humble, and smart — we'll take coachability over 25 years of doing it the wrong way
Nice to Have
· Backflow Prevention Assembly Tester (BPAT) endorsement
· Medical gas certification
· Experience with ServiceTrade or similar field service management software
Schedule & On-Call
Monday through Friday, standard daytime hours. Rotating on-call coverage.
Emergencies are emergencies — that's the trade. But we've built dispatch and documentation so our technicians don't get paged at 11pm for something a dispatcher should have handled. Planning and prevention are the product.
Compensation & Benefits
· Company truck use and fuel card (full-time)
· Health, dental, and vision insurance
· Paid time off and paid holidays
· 401(k) available
· Overtime at 1.5x after 40 hours
· Paid continuing education, Journeyman and Master exam prep, backflow and medical gas certifications
How to Apply
Apply through Paylocity. We respond to every qualified applicant.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about Welder Jobs
What is the median hourly wage for welders in the United States as of January 2026 including overtime rates?
The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports the median hourly wage for welders at $28.45 as of January 2026 with time-and-a-half overtime required after 40 hours under FLSA rules. Welders in manufacturing earn an additional $4.20 per hour on average for night shifts. Annual median earnings reach $59,176 for full-time roles.
How many hours per week can welders legally work in the United States without overtime pay in 2026?
The U.S. Department of Labor sets the standard workweek at 40 hours with overtime at 1.5 times the regular rate required after that threshold in 2026. Welders on federal contracts receive double time for hours over 48 in a workweek. Paid sick leave of up to 56 hours annually applies under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act extensions.
What education and experience are required to qualify for welder jobs in the United States in 2026?
The Bureau of Labor Statistics states a high school diploma plus 6-12 months of postsecondary welding training or apprenticeship is required for 2026 entry-level positions. Three years of documented experience is mandatory for structural welding roles under AWS D1.1 standards referenced by DOL. Certification in SMAW or GMAW processes must be completed before hire.
What documents are required to apply for welder positions through U.S. Department of Labor registered apprenticeships in 2026?
Applicants must submit Form ETA-671, high school transcripts, and proof of U.S. work authorization to DOL-registered programs by March 2026 deadlines. A valid driver's license and negative drug test results from a SAMHSA-certified lab are mandatory. Background checks via FBI fingerprinting are required for nuclear or pipeline welding tracks.
