On April 1, 1950, George T. Sanders and his wife Pauline launched a small business to provide sheet metal and other materials to heating contractors in Denver, Colorado. The business began at 1111 Stout Street in downtown Denver. The company moved to 7821 West Colfax Avenue in Lakewood in 1952 due to its growth.

In 1962, the company transitioned to new quarters at 1365 Harlan Street. Prior to this, the emphasis was mainly on heating and sheet metal. Expanding into plumbing became one of the most crucial decisions for the company. Currently, the George T. Sanders Company is acknowledged as one of Colorado's leading plumbing supply houses.

In 1965, land was acquired across the street at 1370 Harlan Street. In 1966, a metal warehouse with a modest office area was constructed on this site. The company continually introduced new product lines and increased its workforce. Reed is a Manager at the George T. Sanders Company.
