At the British Columbia Plumbing & Heating Association (BCPHA), we are a dedicated network of professionals working together to raise the bar for plumbing and HVAC standards across BC.
Our mission is to promote excellence, safety, and innovation in every aspect of our industry. Whether you’re a journeyman, business owner, apprentice, or supplier, BCPHA offers support, resources, and opportunities to grow your craft and your company.
We believe that when the trades work together, everyone benefits — from professionals to homeowners to the communities we serve.
What We Do
BC Plumbing & Heating Association
From Vancouver Island to the Interior, we bring together tradespeople across the province to:
Share knowledge and opportunities
Uphold best practices and safety standards
Offer peer-to-peer mentorship and business support
Advocate for smart policy and industry recognition
Our members know that collaboration beats competition. Need to refer a job outside your scope? Too busy to serve a client? BCPHA helps you pass along non-ideal work to someone who specializes in it — so you protect your name and keep your clients happy
