Electrician and Plumber won't be automated away any time soon. Both require more dexterity than any robot currently available and would probably require a 'true' AI as each situation would be significantly different. This is a problem where humans will be both cheaper and more efficient than a robot.
Manufacturing (by humans) is definitely on its way out though.

Kind of like how mass produced products have structural/design compromises to allow for easier manufacturing. We'll then reminisce about the olden days when you didn't need amazon prime to replace the waste decomposition module every few weeks.
