William "Jay" Horsky Jr. - Owner
42+ Years in the Trade
32+ Years as Founder of Professional Plumbing Inc.
Twenty eight years ago one Orange County plumber had a mission. He had paid his dues as an apprentice and then a master plumber under other Orange County plumbers, and he something just was not quite right. He knew that there had to be a plumber in Orange County that treated clients well and charged a fair price. He wanted to work for that kind of plumber. Orange County, alas, did not seem to have one.
After searching high and low to no avail for polite, honest plumbers, Orange County plumbing services were deemed by this young man to be void of any such thing. At this point, he realized it was time to give the people of his community what they deserved, and that was a dependable, knowledgeable Orange County plumbing service that always charged a fair price for high quality work.
