We began operations in 2022. After spending eight and a half years with a local plumbing firm in Red Bluff, I opted to establish my own business. I never intended to compete with my mentor, but his rates were high at $185 an hour plus parts. After eight years, I was earning just $20. I absorbed as much knowledge as I could before becoming my own boss. The name Ask Ryan Plumbing came about because various friends in trades call me for help. Our uniqueness lies in the fact that I will be the one to address your plumbing needs and I keep my rates reasonable.

I’ve been a resident of Red Bluff for two decades. I went through middle and high school in this town. I didn’t have a clear dream during high school. With uncertainty about my future, I decided to find a trade. I started working at a local plumbing firm, DW Plumbing. I began by digging ditches, cleaning job sites, and assisting with demolition. I sometimes assisted different trades. I progressed to service calls and remodels. I spent two years learning from a skilled mentor. Then I moved on to PGE jobs, earning a prevailing wage. I was often away from home for work. I witnessed my trainers leave the company without any retirement or benefits. This left me pondering my future. The day came when I asked for a raise, but he couldn’t provide it. So, I took matters into my own hands and gave myself a raise. I can now pay for my own benefits and save for retirement. It’s worth noting that my late father was a plumber too. I should have seen it coming.
