Total Service,PHD

Company Overview

Total Service PHD is led by Ken Roche, a licensed master plumber. Starting at just 10 years old, Ken worked alongside his dad, a licensed master plumber. You could say Ken is a true expert, possessing a ""plumbing PHD,"" as plumbing runs deep in his veins. With 18 years of service in Steamboat, previously known as Roche Plumbing and Heating, Ken and his team have proven their worth. Their expertise spans plumbing, heating, drains, and sewer services. They prioritize excellent customer service, are available 24/7, and hold the highest insurance coverage in the industry. They have seen it all and are ready to manage any plumbing issue.

Ken received his Masters License at a young age of 25, establishing Roche Plumbing & Heating in 1994. Ken's leadership propelled the business forward, evolving from custom home projects to a full-service plumbing operation. He initiated Core Bore in 1997 for concrete demolition, but sold it in 2001 to establish ""Monsters of the Underground"". In 2001, he expanded his services to Roche Trenchless Plumbing, utilizing advanced video technology, locators, and high-pressure jetters to tackle tough drain and sewer issues. His team can line existing pipes with premium epoxy and polyester, effectively repairing old sewers without excavation. Currently, Ken has renamed the business Total Service P.H.D. to showcase the extensive services provided.

Being the son of a master plumber and general contractor, Ken Roche is destined for this profession. Ken hails from upstate New York, graduated from Niagara University in 1991, and relocated to Steamboat Springs to try out the ""ski bum"" lifestyle. As with many, he discovered that the ""lifestyle"" was not as appealing as it appeared and needed to find steady work. Ken re-entered the field he knew best: plumbing. At the age of 25, he secured his Masters License and launched Roche Plumbing & Heating in 1994, ultimately rebranding to Total Service, PHD. Ken's ""one call does it all"" philosophy at Total Service covers all aspects, from major excavation and sewer repairs to perimeter drains and septic systems. His skilled team is prepared to handle everything with just one phone call. This also encompasses general contracting for extensive flood damage from frozen and burst pipes.
