Company History
Company Background
The Polite Plumber is a third generation family owned and operated residential plumbing service company located in Ledgewood NJ. Established in 1948, we service a 20-mile radius of Lake Hopatcong in New Jersey in order to really know our customers well. Our owner and service manager, Willy, and his wife, Kathy, stay grounded in the principals his father and grandfather instilled over the years. Hard work and honesty is what he expects of himself and his team.
The Great Name Controversy
Through the years many people have asked us about the name “The Polite Plumber.” Our owner’s wife, Kathy, insists the name was earned from the 60 years worth of compliments given to Willy, his father and his grandfather. Each generation gave gentle, fair and polite customer service. Willy, however, thinks that the name represents an ideal standard for great customer service.
