Do it.
Train to be a pipefitter if you can because you can always do a plumbers job, not the other way round.
I was on a job before Christmas, if you did all the hours Monday-Sunday, before tax you'd earn £2200 a week
I'm currently on a job 20 mins from my house. 7am - 4pm and taking home after tax a month around £2500.
You've got to come to a compromise though, you're either driving for over 4 hours a day (or lodging) earning mega money. Or close to home earning less.
All of this of course is site work. Domestic plumbing I can't really comment
