Drainflow Plumbing

Company Overview

We are a smaller, customer-centric business, founded on high-quality workmanship, committed to providing optimal solutions at fair rates. Our mission is to assist individuals with plumbing issues, delivering transparent information, while maintaining focus on every aspect of the job.

I began my plumbing career in 2002, working in both residential and commercial construction, and handling maintenance jobs. I transitioned to full-time service work, while gaining experience in heating and air systems. After experiencing industry layoffs, I chose to launch my own company. I saw a gap in the market for a plumbing company, focused on quality work rather than just profit.

I bring 21 years of plumbing experience to the table, before entering plumbing, I was engaged in the construction sector, and before that, I served in the Navy as an aircraft engine mechanic. I started my business with a vision of providing top-notch service, taking a hands-on approach, without breaking the bank.

Greetings, I’m Stephen, originally from Birmingham, AL. My mother worked in the legal field, and my father was in the lumber business. When I was about six, we relocated to Shelby County, in Helena, AL, and then returned to Birmingham when I was nearly twelve, where I spent two years at Homewood High, before relocating to Irondale, graduating from Shades Valley in 1991.

After high school, I enlisted in the Navy as an aircraft engine mechanic, serving with VP-4 at Barbers Point, HI. Upon leaving the service, I entered the construction trades, working alongside my uncles in heating and air, and eventually received plumbing training, which I gladly accepted.

During my downtime, I love to read, cycling on trails, going on trips, taking hiking excursions, and enjoying the beach during summer. I work with local charities whenever I have the chance, handing out food packages to the less fortunate, and assisting anyone requiring help. I am dedicated to fighting against animal abuse, and I am equally committed to addressing child abuse.
