Bobby Wimbush
Owner and lead plumber
Reads every wall before the first cut and writes the scope himself. If you want a second opinion on a finding, he is the one to ask.
Bobby Wimbush
Owner and lead plumber
I got into old houses because the plumbing in them is honest. You can read what the last plumber was thinking.
Our shop is small on purpose: two journeymen, an apprentice, an office and me. We take fewer jobs so every one gets a walk-through, a written scope and someone who has read the wall.
What I do
- Galvanized, copper and cast-iron repair
- Brass and period fixtures
- Scopes for architects and boards
The shop
Who comes to your house
Two journeymen and an apprentice come with Bobby, or on their own for the smaller jobs.
Dimitra Zajac
Journeyman plumber
Does most of the sweat-joint copper and the brass work. She keeps the shop's box of old washers, stems and seats.
Yahir Carmona
Journeyman plumber
Runs the cast-iron and drain jobs. He takes the photographs before a wall is opened and again before it is closed.
Kamari Crump
Apprentice
Learning the trade alongside both journeymen, and in charge of the drop cloths and the shoe covers.
