The Founding Story
In 1979, armed with a single vehicle and his tools, Glenn Pratt began his own plumbing business. He quickly realized that to create lasting personal success, he needed to empower others and build a brand with a legacy sustainable beyond himself.
What started in a small workshop has evolved into a network of hundreds of franchisees. Glenn’s vision was simple: Provide exceptional service and a business framework that allows hardworking South Africans to flourish.
