Birth of the plumbing profession in the Philippines 17th century
Filipino plumbers were assigned the task of maintaining, 18th and 19th Centuries
repairing and/or remodeling plumbing systems in all
"pueblos" or towns including churches, convents and
government buildings.
PLUMBING took a great leap with the arrival of the 20th Century

and evangelists. Health and hygiene became priority when
epidemics including cholera, leprosy. schistosomiasis and
other contagious diseases engulfed the Philippines.
