Meet the Team

Established in 2024, Fonthill Plumbing started as a one-man show and has grown since into a small team that serves Fonthill and the broader Niagara Region. As we grow, our goal remains simple: to build a company that people know, trust, and feel safe calling on when they need us.

We’re grateful for how far we have come, excited where we’re going, and proud to be growing right here in the community we call home.
