The following companies are "friends" of Protocol Plumbing and Sewer and were all part of the story of how we became a reality.
Once we knew what we wanted to do we needed to line up the resources that it would take to start our own plumbing company. A wise man once told us "you can't just put up a shingle and call yourself in business". We had over 35 years of experience so we called on some professionals to get us going.
Marty Adams at Car Finder Edmonds helped us find trucks
If they ever break down, we'll talk to Troy at Bernie's Automotive . They've been in Ballard for over 40 years.
Once we had trucks Nathan at Acclaim Sign created the signage
Now we needed to stock the trucks. While we did use some of the huge "do it yourself" places, they don't need our help. We also used Pacific Plumbing Supply Company and Wolverine Brass
We used North Seattle Minuteman Press for our printing needs
Checks on Call Inc took care of our payroll needs
Matt Wyatt at Wyatt Insurance Agency made sure we were insured
Finally, Kate at Don's Group Attire made sure we looked professional and lined us up with the proper plumbing attire.
Our webmaster helped us get that, virtual, "shingle" up and used Adobe Creative Suite 2 to create protocolplumbing.com. See Adobe's website for more info on their products.
We are now ready to "call ourselves in business" and we look forward to making new friends and taking care of your plumbing needs. Call us or email us today and let's start writing the next chapter of this story.

After a couple of years in business we've met some great people. We've reached a point where we'd like to take our company from a "word of mouth" company to a company with a small advertising budget. But we couldn't figure out what was the best way to do it. Do we fight it out in the filth on the backs of buses OR do we do the stadium thing? After thinking about it long and hard we went to a Silvertips game and we met Adam Gesacion. Adam is the Director of Sales at the Comcast Arena in Everett. We're big Silvertips fans so we thought "how cool would it be to advertise in Comcast Arena?". So we did it and it's pretty cool. Adam sent us this cool logo. If you click on it, you can order tickets to cool events coming up at Comcast Arena. While you're there, take a peak at the scoreboard. Right after the Pepsi logo, you'll see us. Enjoy your event.
If you'd like to join us on the list of logos contact Adam Gesacion at Comcast Arena.
