Built from the trade up

Rising Tide Plumbing was founded by Jeff Hughes. With nearly 30 years under his belt in the plumbing industry, Jeff has learned the ins and outs of the trade.

Today, Jeff has built a following with his YouTube channel with over 58K subscribers and has successfully grown a consulting business advising contractors, supply houses, and plumbing businesses, as well as DIY learners coast to coast.

This site is the home for his on-demand plumbing education — the same craft, methods, and mindset Jeff has spent a career refining, packaged so anyone can learn at their own pace.

DIY Classes & Courses available now — the featured courses and classes on this site are built for homeowners and DIYers ready to tackle real projects with confidence: repairs, remodels, fixture swaps, and whole-house work. Step-by-step lessons, the right tools and materials, and the professional methods Jeff uses every day on the job.

Looking to make plumbing a career? Jeff's full career curriculum lives with Course Careers, where he serves as the field expert guiding students from zero experience into the trade. For supply houses and plumbing businesses, Rising Tide builds custom licensed training and sales programs directly — reach out and we'll tailor a package to your team.
