Companies go into business for many different reasons. What was your reason for starting a plumbing company?  

It actually just sort of happened. I got my license so I could have the independence of working on my own. I soon built up a customer base that refused to use anyone else. It got to the point I had to hire a plumber. Then later more plumbers. Now, 2 of my 4 sons work for Lange Plumbing & Fire Protection. The other 2 are engineers in similar capacities.
