About Us - Serving Our Community Since 1911
For over 110 years, Armstrong Bros Plumbing has been the trusted name in plumbing services throughout Palmetto and Bradenton, Florida.
Our Story Through the Decades
Over a century of trusted service, passed down through four generations of the Armstrong family
Three Brothers, One Vision
Armstrong Bros. Plumbing was founded by brothers Charles, Dave, and Les Armstrong after they moved to Manatee County from Minnesota. With a commitment to quality craftsmanship and honest service, they established what would become one of Florida's most trusted plumbing companies. Dave served as the first Public Works Commissioner for Bradenton, while Les became the first Republican County Commissioner elected since the Civil War. Charles eventually took sole ownership, building the foundation of excellence we maintain today.
A Legacy Continues
Charles' son Chester bought the company from his father in 1936, ushering in a new era of growth and innovation. Under Chester's leadership, Armstrong Bros expanded beyond traditional plumbing to include LP gas, oil, and heating supplies, becoming a comprehensive home services provider. This expansion reflected our commitment to meeting all of our customers' needs under one trusted name.
Modern Innovation
When Bill Armstrong took over the business in 1970, he brought modern techniques and technology while preserving the family values that made Armstrong Bros special. Under his leadership, the company evolved into an industry leader for pipe lining, hydro jetting, and comprehensive plumbing services. This commitment to innovation while honoring tradition continues to define us today.
