Company History
The company began as a one-person shop in the late 1990s. It grew slowly as word spread across the Androscoggin River valley. Over time the business added a van fleet and a small office in Auburn. The focus remained steady: straight talk, on-time arrivals, and practical repairs for Maine homes.
Work often reflects local housing. Many jobs are on 1940s–1970s houses with older pipes. The team adapts methods to fit that older stock and to meet current codes.
Leadership
Owner Mike Doherty started as an apprentice and worked in the field for many years before opening the business. He holds plumbing licenses and attends regional trade meetings. Mike is involved in local community events and supports apprenticeship training for new plumbers in the area.
