Company History

The company began as a small shop in Lathrop, started by a local plumber who wanted reliable service for farms and homes. Over the years it grew from a one-truck operation into a multi-tech service provider while staying rooted in the same community. Growth came from steady referrals and repeat customers across county lines.

Along the way Cooters added septic services and trained technicians for water heater systems, especially as homes shifted to higher-demand plumbing layouts and recirculation pumps became more common in larger houses.
