What is a plumber pun?

A plumber pun is a play on words that swaps an everyday word for a plumbing-flavoured one - think "pipe-fect" for perfect, or "drain-atic" for dramatic. The best plumber puns lean on the toolbox of sounds the trade hands you for free: pipe, drain, leak, flush, tap, flow, wrench, sink, clog, pressure, valve, fitting, pump and sewer. Slot one of those into a familiar phrase and you have an instant groaner - "going with the flow" or "that plan holds water" do the heavy lifting on their own. Everything below is sorted by exactly how you will use it - one-liners, van captions, kids' jokes, thank-you cards and quick zingers.
