Company History
Starr Plumbing started as a one-truck operation in 2009. The founder focused on straightforward, reliable work and built a steady local client base. Over time the business added technicians, a small office, and equipment for camera inspections and leak detection.
Growth has been practical and local. Starr Plumbing kept its service area focused so crews spend more time solving problems than driving across town.
Leadership
The founder, Mark Starr, is a licensed master plumber with hands-on experience in residential and commercial systems. He began as an apprentice, worked in larger service companies, and returned to the community to start his own business.
Mark participates in local trade groups and partners on community projects, such as plumbing help for neighborhood repairs and school facility checks. Staff training is held regularly to keep crews current with plumbing codes and safety practices.
