Company History
The company started as a one-person service in the early 2000s, built by a local plumber who wanted dependable service for lake properties. Over time, as demand grew for seasonal maintenance and winter plumbing care, the shop added a few technicians and basic fleet vehicles. Growth was steady and community-focused rather than rapid. They keep records of seasonal customers to make spring and fall maintenance more efficient.
Leadership
Leadership is local. The founder trained in residential and commercial plumbing and spent years working on service calls around lake cabins and year-round homes. The owner is active in local trades groups and knows how Minnesota winters affect plumbing systems. That background helps when diagnosing freeze-prone pipes and advising on insulation or pipe relocation.
