Our Story

ABOUT FLOWRIGHT PLUMBING

18 years of honest work, flat-rate pricing, and a deep commitment to the Phoenix community.

Founded 2008

BUILT ON FRUSTRATION WITH BAD PLUMBERS

Marcus Rodriguez spent 12 years working for Phoenix's largest plumbing chain — and got tired of upselling customers on repairs they didn't need and charging hourly rates that ballooned into surprises.

In 2008, he invested his savings into a single service van and launched FlowRight Plumbing Co. with one rule: quote a flat price and stick to it. No exceptions. The response from Phoenix homeowners was immediate — within two years, he had a team of four.

Today, FlowRight employs 12 licensed plumbers across the Phoenix metro with a 4.9-star rating built on 9,400+ completed jobs. The mission hasn't changed: honest plumbing, fair prices, and work that lasts.

FlowRight Plumbing Team

OUR MISSION & VALUES

Every decision at FlowRight is guided by three principles that Marcus has enforced since day one.

RADICAL HONESTY

We diagnose the real problem and tell you exactly what it costs to fix. We never manufacture work or exaggerate severity. If you don't need it, we won't recommend it.

CRAFT OVER SPEED

We'd rather take an extra 20 minutes to do a job right than rush out the door. Every fitting is tested, every connection is inspected. We sign our work with pride.

COMMUNITY FIRST

We live in the neighborhoods we serve. FlowRight donates 1% of annual revenue to Phoenix-area housing assistance programs and offers discounts to seniors and veterans.
