Ben’s journey through various trades began upon his return from the United States Coast Guard in 1974. He delved into automotive mechanics while also assisting in his father’s frame and axle shop. In 1978, amidst starting a family, he founded Foster’s Wheel Service, specializing in wheel repair. However, by 1995, his passion waned, leading him to pursue plumbing.
After a transformative Fourth of July family vacation in 1995, Ben abandoned his wheel shop and swiftly transitioned into plumbing. A brief conversation with a plumbing company owner led to an apprenticeship, marking the start of Ben’s flourishing career in plumbing.
