Above Plumbing & Contracting

History

Jay Frees Plumbing on Capital Hill was founded in the 1950's. Jay worked in the shop of his namesake as a young boy learning the craft. He watched his father run the family business. In his late teens when his grandfather was nearing his 90's the business was sold along with the rights to the family name. Jay (the 3rd) started Above Plumbing and Contracting in 2007 after training with the local plumbing union to learn all of the modern techniques used today. With such a broad range of training and knowledge Jay is able to handle even the hardest conversion updates, new construction layouts & trouble shoot things that most plumbers can't begin to figure out. Jay brings a return to the day when character and your word matter. Reliable, trustworthy and experienced...
