Company History

The business began when brothers Jack and Rich Herra bought a small Lily Lake plumbing shop nearly 40 years ago. They moved the shop to Elburn in the early 1980s and added staff as the area grew. Over time the company added heating, cooling, electric, radiant, and geothermal services to meet local needs in older cottages and newer subdivisions along the Fox River.

Leadership

Brian Herra leads the company today. Raised in the family shop, Brian finished his plumbing apprenticeship and obtained his plumbing license in 2002 while earning a business degree from Aurora University. He purchased the business in 2011 and splits his time between field work, office management, and community outreach. His local connections and hands-on experience keep the company grounded in practical service.
