A Few Words About Us
About us
Reading & Son Plumbing, Inc. was founded in March of 1984. I, Jim Reading had plumbed in the Peoria area since 1969. When the hard times hit, I lost my plumbing job like all other plumbers. I left the area and went to work at Clinton Nuclear Power Plant. In 1984, the decision was made if my wife Diana and our three children were to stay in Peoria, we would have to try our luck at our own business. Times were tough. I worked 70 to 80 hours a week and gained many thankful customers. We incorporated and turned our family van into the company plumbing van. We hired our first plumber in 1986 and another in 1989. Over the years our company has expanded our crews to handle the service and new work. Our office has also expanded to satisfy our customer relations and service to our clients. The office was run out of our home until 1989. It was then we mortgaged our home and bought a commercial building off Pioneer Parkway on Crestline Drive, which is still our current location today.
Reading & Son Plumbing has been serving the area for close to 40 years. We are used by major retailers, restaurants, and real estate management firms throughout the greater Peoria area for both service and new construction.
As a member of Associated Builders and Contractors, Inc., the largest open shop construction trade association in the United States, Reading & Son Plumbing promises the highest ethical standards, workmanship and bidding practices no matter the size of the job.
