Company History

Founded in 1908, Kuhn Plumbing and Heating began as a family business under Edward T. Kuhn. Over the decades the company helped maintain plumbing and steam heating in many long-standing Chicago buildings.

In 2005, longtime employees Timothy, Daniel and Patrick Kane took over operations and formed Kane Family Plumbing Corporation, continuing the Kuhn Plumbing name and tradition. The firm kept the practical service methods and local knowledge that neighborhoods depend on.

Leadership

Timothy Kane has been with Kuhn Plumbing since February 1977. He completed a four-year apprenticeship and the Local 130 licensing program, then spent more than 30 years working in the field before becoming plumbing contractor in 2006. His hands-on experience gives the company an intimate understanding of Chicago systems and older building layouts.
