Gas Fitter jobs in Nashville: FAQs
How much do gas fitters make?
Most licensed gas fitters earn $28 to $40 an hour, roughly $58,000 to $83,000 a year. Helpers and apprentices start around $17 to $24 an hour, and masters, union, or utility workers can top $50 an hour.
Are gas fitters in demand?
Yes. Demand is steady and reliable. The skilled-trades workforce is aging, so trained, licensed gas workers keep getting hired, plus there is constant work servicing and replacing existing gas equipment.
How fast can I start?
You can apply to helper and apprentice jobs today and get hired with no experience. Many companies train you on the job and pay you from day one while you work toward your license.
Do I need a degree to be a gas fitter?
No. You need a high school diploma or GED, then you learn on the job through an apprenticeship. A state license, not a college degree, is what lets you do gas work for pay.
