Company History

The business began as a one-truck operation focused on small repairs for local neighbors. Over time it grew as rural homeowners and small businesses in the area asked for reliable service. The company has kept a community focus while adding training and equipment to handle inspections and more complex repairs.

Growth stayed steady because the company works on the kinds of houses common in Centerville — older bungalows, farmhouses with basements, and newer suburban builds near the lake. That variety shaped the team’s experience.

Leadership

Leadership comes from local roots. The owner is a long-time Centerville resident with hands-on plumbing experience and a practical approach to repairs. Staff members are licensed technicians who live in the service area and know local building styles and weather risks.

The company keeps ties to the community by taking part in local events and helping with small municipal projects when asked.
