Chris West Plumbing

Chris West’s father was a plumber, and it was natural for him to join that trade. In 1999, he founded Chris West Plumbing in Jonesboro. The company specializes in residential repairs, light commercial projects, rehabbing drainage pipes and other plumbing-related projects. One thing Chris West Plumbing does is train apprentice plumbers in-house.

Several of their 25 employees came into the business out of high school, while others are military veterans. For several, it is a second and sometimes third career. Training in house gives West and his team a better grasp of who they are hiring and workforce development is emphasized in the company.

Chris West Plumbing is a member of state and national trade organizations.
