Company History

Above The Rest Plumbing began as a single-truck operation focused on inspections and repairs in Oak Park’s older homes. Over time, the company added camera inspection equipment and trained apprentices to handle the area’s mix of bungalow, Victorian, and early 20th-century plumbing systems.

Growth came from steady, local referrals and contracts with small property managers. The business remains locally owned and keeps service practices practical and transparent rather than flashy.

Leadership

Leadership includes a founder with years of hands-on plumbing experience and several journeyman plumbers who grew up working on suburban and city properties. The team stays active in local trade gatherings and contributes time to neighborhood housing events.

The company keeps a visible presence in Oak Park projects and training programs, helping newer technicians learn how to work on older pipe materials and tight spaces common in the area.
