In order to smash the stereotypes of the construction world, David Williams combined his construction background with his love for plumbing to create 128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling and Electric. It took years of hard work, long hours and dedication to prove to his customers that quality and service superseded everything else, but after 25 years, 128 now has 48 employees, 34 vehicles and a list of more than 15,000 customers served.
“We are proud to be making waves in our niche of the industry and really blessed with an incredible team that works hard for our customers every day,” says Ryan Williams, general manager and co-owner. “As the son of a master plumber, and having grown up in the trade, many thought I would pick up the tools when dad was ready to put them down. But, my dad had a different plan for me. He wanted me to think bigger and pursue my education. Well, I did just that, and after graduating college and pursuing a few entrepreneurial ventures, I came back to the industry that gave my family everything and it was time to give back. In 2014, I got serious about the plumbing, heating and air conditioning industry. I was lucky, though — my father has always thought big and has always been a visionary. He gave me incredible insight, education and the opportunity to master my craft in business.”
