Company History
The company began as a one-person operation focused on home plumbing calls and expanded as demand grew. Early on, emergency winter freeze calls and sump pump failures shaped a practical emergency focus. Over time the team added trenching equipment and restoration tools to handle jobs that start in the yard and finish inside the house. That hands-on growth helps the company address root problems rather than quick fixes.
Leadership
The founder, Tom, started as a journeyman plumber and moved into running the business after years in the field. He keeps regular contact with crews and is often on-site for complex jobs. Leadership maintains connections with local building contractors and the Columbia community, participating in trade discussions and local outreach when storm damage hits the area.
