CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR MILESTONE MEMBERS

FLO-RITE PLUMBING

35 Years of Membership

Flo-Rite Plumbing Services was formed by Craig and Kathy Poynton and began operating in April of 1984.

Initially the business concentrated on new house plumbing and drainage work, which later included industrial and commercial work. This progressed into a growing maintenance plumbing and hot water operation, servicing both the private and Government sectors. The company began operations with one full time employee. This number would fluctuate over the years to accommodate the various workloads of the day. At times this included up to 10 plumbers but mainly with a stable crew of between three to five full time employees.

Over this long period of time, some of the things we are most proud of include:

The ability to grow, build success and stay in business for almost 40 years.

The many apprentices we trained and saw gain knowledge and experience, some of whom now operate their own business.

The employment of some who had been unsuccessful in gaining employment elsewhere for a variety of reasons, and us being prepared to give them a go.

The faith that we placed in them, in most cases turned out to be extremely successful for both parties.

MPAQ has always been a help to our business whenever the need arose. This included the ability to call them when required for such things as: regulatory issues, wages, superannuation, and various courses such as Quality Assurance, and more. Sometimes even just for a chat, when we wanted to bounce an idea off someone else independent of our own business.

MPAQ would like to congratulate Flo-Rite Plumbing Services for reaching this milestone!
