Michael J. Ruel Bio
After working on the World Trade Center, I started my own business in 1979. I knew I had the ability, the knowledge and most importantly a wife who would answer the phones-and still does 29 years later! But, I didn’t know then that I would enjoy being in my own business as much as I do! Some of my customers have been with me since the beginning, but I enjoy meeting new people and building my customer base. I pride myself on being professional, knowledgeable, neat and punctual! I always stand behind my work.
I currently hold a plumbing license in NJ. I also hold a NJ home improvement contractors registration. I formerly held positions of President, Vice President, and Secretary of the Pascack Valley Master Plumbers Association. I am also a member of the NJ State League of Master Plumbers.
As owner/operator, I do my own work. When you call me for a job, I am the one who performs the service so you can be confident that the job will be well done. I can usually respond to your call faster than utility companies and you also get the security of knowing who will be coming into your home. I enjoy trouble shooting and welcome the
opportunity to resolve problems that previously had no solution.
