Company History
The business began as a family trade. Ruben Mendez learned plumbing from his father and opened the company after decades of hands-on work. Over time the shop expanded from simple residential repairs to include commercial projects, under slab tunneling, and full remodel plumbing.
Growth came from steady fieldwork and referrals in neighborhoods with mixed housing styles — from older adobe homes around the Rio Grande to newer subdivisions in Rio Rancho. The crew kept practices practical and focused on durable repairs that hold up to the desert climate and seasonal monsoon runoff.
Leadership
Owner Ruben Mendez leads the team. He has more than 30 years of commercial and residential plumbing and heating experience. Ruben stays active in the local community and brings a hands-on approach to training technicians and handling complex jobs.
