Who We Are

Joe Gillispie, the driving force behind Total Plumbing Solutions, brings over 30 years of experience in the mechanical field. However, he credits the success of TPS not just to his expertise but to the incredible team that stands beside him every day. From the beginning, Joe recognized that the strength of any company lies in its people, and he’s proud to work alongside some of the most skilled and dedicated professionals in the industry.

Joe's journey started as a helper at a small mechanical firm, where he built the foundation of his extensive knowledge. Over the years, he moved on to manage complex systems in large building complexes, honing his skills in complete building sewer systems, water distribution systems, and plumbing. Despite his personal accomplishments, Joe's greatest pride comes from the collaborative spirit that defines TPS.

Founded in 2007, Total Plumbing Solutions was Joe's vision to create a company that values quality workmanship and customer satisfaction above all else. This vision has been brought to life thanks to the commitment and hard work of the entire TPS team. Their collective effort ensures that every job is done right the first time, living up to the company’s motto: “Service not measured by gold, but by the Golden Rule.”

On a personal note, Joe is grateful for the support of his wife, Michelle, and their children, who have been by his side throughout this journey. Together with his team and family, Joe continues to lead TPS with integrity, ensuring that the company remains a trusted name in the plumbing industry.

results speak for themselves

Gerardo did an amazing job! Within an hour, he found the leak and repaired it. He was quick to answer all our questions and concerns and even checked the rest of the house with us to make sure everything was good before he left. I'm a penny pincher and was so thankful to find there were no surprises on my bill besides how low it was. I'm so very thankful!! This was an extremely stressful situation for us and he handled our home and us with care!! Thank you Gerardo!!!
