Dunbar Plumbing
Master Plumber
A well-to-do plumbing company in my area along with investors and a supply house are teaming up together to develop the ability to make fittings.
I would assume this is plastic fittings, not copper. Pretty sure PVC which would be a takeoff from Charlotte or Nibco, Legend.
The plumbing supply houses have really been struggling in my area.
Cutting down store hours, not working on saturdays, coming in a 1/2 hour later.
Depending on what supply house you go to...you can end up paying considerably more and that is taking advantage of your loyalty. I had this happen a couple months ago and the only thing I'll do with them now.....is use their dumpster to get rid of garbage.
Shouldn't treat the little guy like that.
I haven't been affected by this building slump as service work is steady and strong. Seems like every friday I turn down at least 3-7 calls as everybody wants a plumber on friday afternoon. No thanks.
I'm sure that being a distributor of plastic fittings will be an asset to the community but I'm sure the profit margins in those are pretty high. At the most I use maybe a garbage can of fittings a year so I probably won't gain from this latest development.
