Thomas Plumbing – Who is Jamie Crapper?
Thomas Crapper may be well-known in the plumbing business, but do you know his story from Victorian-era?
Grabowski notes that Albert Giblin actually invented a floating valve attributed to Crapper as an overflow preventer in tanks; however, Crapper did hold nine patents for designs of water closets, drains, manhole covers and pipe joints that bear his name.
Early Life and Education
Thomas Plumbing of Bolingbrook, Illinois specializes in residential and commercial plumbing services for both homes and businesses, providing their clients with quality and professional care. They also offer materials financing with payment terms of up to 120-days.
Anderson was raised in Pin Point, Georgia in a one-room shack without plumbing where he sold frogs to raise money for school supplies. Later sent by his grandfather to Savannah Catholic school specifically designed for black students where racism (dislike or disrespect for someone based on race) caused significant conflict but nonetheless excelled academically.
Popular belief suggests that Crapper was so accomplished at his plumbing work that Queen Victoria knighted him – this is untrue; in actuality he was simply known as “Mr. Crapper”. Although, he did have several dealings with royalty and his sanitary works often featured an eye-catching royal crest.
Professional Career
Thomas founded his business on trustworthiness and professionalism, always willing to go the extra mile for customers and deliver quality work every time. Due to this dedication he quickly established himself as one of Raeford’s premier plumbing services.
Once he passed away in 2004, his sons took over his business. Two of them learned plumbing from their father and are state licensed plumbers; another, Shaun Harper, runs all administrative aspects while Keith Harper handles field projects.
Thomas Plumbing provides exceptional careers for individuals looking for work in the plumbing industry, offering competitive hourly pay, weekly commission bonuses and paid vacation for full time employees. Furthermore, we provide materials financing with up to 120-day payment terms.
Achievement and Honors
After 20 years running his own plumbing business, Jamie took on a new challenge by returning to education and co-running Level 2 and 3 plumbing courses at Bucks College Group. Since then he has helped students reach their full potential by entering them in national plumbing competitions and taking them on trade exhibition visits.

Personal Life
Thomas Crapper was indeed a real person, yet some falsehoods persist about his life. As an engineer with multiple patents for sanitation devices and his own plumbing business, Thomas was known as one of the top public speakers regarding toilet and waste management issues.
Crogan has expanded his company to employ 22 mechanics who specialize in new work and repair. He enjoys competing against his fellow mechanics for business success; in his free time he loves playing golf and exercising. Kristine and Guy, his two sons, make up his immediate family.
He is very involved with his church and has helped many poor people. For instance, he once provided food and clothing to an impoverished family that otherwise received no support. Furthermore, he donated to a Catholic charity which distributed Sacred Heart badges and rosaries amongst its sick recipients.
Net Worth
Richard Trethewey may be best known as one of the regular cast members on home renovation reality show This Old House, but he actually holds an active and successful plumbing business, RST Thermal, serving Boston and nearby areas.
His career began while serving as an apprentice with his father’s plumbing company in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Soon thereafter he took over his dad’s business and eventually purchased a fire sprinkler company; leading him eventually to form APi Inc, an umbrella of safety and industrial services companies.
He’s also an author, publishing his memoir entitled, “The Pimlico Plumber.” One of his many clever strategies used to increase wealth was placing plumbing-themed personalized number plates on company vehicles as part of an effective marketing ploy to boost his brand and generate income – this tactic alone being enough for him to increase wealth significantly.
