Summary

I'm 26 ur in the plumbing field I'm licensed in illinois for 26 yr I taught plumbing school for the state of Illinois I'm a warranty/diagnostic teacher for bradford white water heaters and im also part of a license program for the state to bust unlicensed contractors

I started in plumbing with g.b. plumbing and remodeling and the owner would buy houses and we would gut them down to the studs and rebuild with new roofs windows doors siding electric water sewer then frame out and just complete rebuild

I left there and ran metro mechanical in wacaonda a plumbing shop with 110 guys we did a lot of with with the local gas companies and homedepot and lowes every morning we had employee meeting and we went over the pervious day and I was out as well fixing bad jobs helping guys get difficult jobs done and customer satisfaction and also trying to negotiate with our customers costs

I left there to start my own business cause the owner wouldn't help me renegotiate a deal with those customers and his business was failing due to revenue that hadn't been changed in over 15 yr and his costs were far to high for what he was bringing in so I ened up with his contracts after he had to shut down and I had my business for 12yrs and we decided to move to Florida to be closer to family and help out family i had 4 guys total including myself we did everything from remodeling to new construction sewer repairs and replacement Water service repairs and replacement to fixture repairs and replacement we allude a good relation and we were able to talk to each other and not have that boss/ employee atmosphere
