Company History

The company began in 1950 when Dick Ray returned to Kansas City after serving as a commanding officer during World War II. He started the business with a couple of pipe wrenches and the family car as a work truck. His uncles had helped lay early sewers in Kansas City, and the family has deep local roots dating to 1854.

From those early 24-hour calls answered at home to a licensed team today, the business has grown while keeping simple values: do the job right, avoid shortcuts, and stand behind the work. If a job ever falls short, they will return and correct it while the owner still owns the building — no one-year limits on fixes.

Dick Ray, the founder, brought naval leadership and hands-on skill to the trade. He trained as an officer at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy and then built a local company with a decades-long commitment to the community. The firm maintains Master Plumber, Master Mechanic, and Refrigeration Supervision licenses to work across the metro area.
