Company History

Founded in 1942, Sparrow & Sons began as a small family shop and grew through generations of hands-on experience. Over 75 years of local service built a practical knowledge of area homes — many older houses in Carrboro and nearby towns have unique plumbing needs tied to their age and Southern climate. The company added water treatment and backflow services as local codes and homeowner concerns evolved.

Leadership

Jonathan Sparrow leads the business today. He maintains the family’s practical approach: respond to customers, fix the problem, and keep communication clear. Jonathan has emphasized customer feedback recently and has committed to monitoring review sites and responding to concerns so prospective clients have current information about the company.
