T

Tap dancer

Bricklayers = brickies

Electricians = sparks

Plasterers = spreads

Customers = custards

Plumbers = ?????

I don't think I've ever heard a slang word, is there one?

If not, can you suggest one?

Pipey springs to my mind.
 
How about just BENDER?

Brickies, chippies, spreads, sparks, and benders.

Think it will catch on?

if its a briccie, chippy & sparky,......then shirley it must be a splashy, sploshy, drippy, dribbly, pipey, wrenchy, bendy, cocky, notchy, clippy, fluxy, stacky, tappy, sinky, stinky !, drainy, brainy (!!), kind of name.........

Personally, having given this some considerable thought......I think "tappy", seeing as there is generally one form or another at the start and end of everything we do..... no?
 
I quite like coppersmith but apparently it exists as the name for someone who makes tat from old copper.

As you've introduced a Spanish link Kay-Jay, how about an International flavor?
