About this exam
The Texas Journeyman Plumber License Examination is for plumbing professionals seeking a journeyman license from the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners (TSBPE). Candidates must meet the state’s experience and application requirements before becoming eligible to test; the board confirms eligibility and provides current scheduling instructions. The exam assesses whether a candidate can apply plumbing knowledge and code requirements to real installation work, including safe, compliant systems—not simply recall definitions.
Review Texas plumbing code requirements and installation standards alongside plans, symbols, and isometric drawings. Key study areas also include water-supply design and pipe sizing, drainage and venting, plumbing materials, pipe joining, and installation methods. The exact exam procedures and permitted references may change, so check current TSBPE candidate information before test day. Preparation is more effective when you practice applying code provisions to job scenarios, identify weak topics, and revisit mistakes rather than only rereading notes.

- Use the current TSBPE candidate information to confirm eligibility, exam procedures, code references, and any permitted materials before you build your study schedule.
- Review code requirements, water supply and pipe sizing, drainage and venting, materials, joining methods, and installation standards; practice reading plumbing plans, symbols, and isometric drawings.
- Work through timed multiple-choice practice, then check each answer against the relevant code or study source. Keep a list of errors and revisit the underlying rule or calculation.
