What started as excavation work
turned into a career in plumbing, built on tough jobs, long hours, and challenges that pushed him at every step. From the cab of an excavator to late-night drain calls in every kind of weather, he learned quickly that this trade demands more than skill alone. It takes drive, determination, and the willingness to show up no matter the conditions; traits that still define him today.
His path forward was shaped by the
people and experiences that came along the way. A childhood role model eventually reappeared years later as a mentor and business connection, offering guidance at just the right time. Nearly a decade with a gas utility gave him a sharp focus on safety after witnessing tragedy up close. When he stepped out on his own, the challenges changed. Running a business, leading a crew, and knowing when to walk away from the wrong job became just as important as turning a wrench.
After nearly twenty years in the trade, he has
built a company that thrives on the toughest projects and the kind of sewer lining work that demands both precision and persistence. What drives him now goes beyond the jobs themselves. His focus is on guiding a young crew, helping them grow into the trade, and showing them the opportunities a career in plumbing can bring. From his first days behind an excavator to leading large-scale projects, his story is defined by grit, resilience, and the refusal to take shortcuts. That dedication to his craft and to the next generation is what makes him a true Drain Invader.
