Company History

LCW began work in 2013. The founder trained under master plumbers and master woodworkers who have been in business since the 1980s. That apprenticeship-style learning shaped how LCW approaches repairs: practical, honest, and focused on lasting fixes.

Over the years, LCW has kept a neighborhood approach. Jobs range from small inspection calls to kitchen or bath remodels that require both plumbing and carpentry skills. Customers can view photos and short job videos on Instagram at @lomonacocustomworks and @upstateplumbinglcw.

Leadership

The owner leads most projects and is often the on-site technician. Training with long-time tradespeople around the Finger Lakes region gave the owner hands-on knowledge about local materials and weather effects. LCW is a familiar presence at rehabs of older Ithaca houses and cottage-style homes near the lake and gorges.
