Meet Brandon - Owner & Master Plumber

Brandon is the owner of A&B Plumbing and the master plumber on most of our jobs. Customers in Hickory know his name because he shows up and does the work himself - that is not marketing copy, that is how the company runs. He started A&B Plumbing after years working as a master plumber in Catawba County, with the idea that a Hickory homeowner should get a real diagnosis, an honest quote, and a tradesperson who actually does the work that was promised.

His specializations matter when you are choosing a plumber:

Navien tankless water heaters - Brandon is factory-trained on the NPE, NPN, and NCB lines. A&B Plumbing is the only Navien Service Specialist in Catawba County. Most other Hickory plumbers refer Navien work out.
Submersible well pump repair - we REPAIR pumps. RockWater Well Drilling and most local competitors quote a full replacement by default. Often the failed part is a $40 check valve or a $90 pressure switch.
Sewer line replacement and trenchless work - especially relevant in older Westmont and Brookford neighborhoods where 1950s and 1960s cast-iron mains are at end of life.

If you have read our reviews, you have seen Brandon by name - we are leaving that in because it is true.

What Makes A&B Plumbing Different

Three things that separate us from the rest of the Hickory plumbing market - and that customers actually call us about.

NC-Licensed & Insured

Active North Carolina plumbing license, general liability and workers compensation insurance, and we install to NC State Plumbing Code. Permits are part of the quote on water heater replacements, gas line work, and sewer line replacements - we pull them and meet the inspector.

Navien Service Specialists

Brandon is factory-trained on Navien NPE, NPN, and NCB tankless water heaters - and the only Navien Service Specialist in Catawba County. We carry common Navien parts on the truck, read and clear error codes on site, and handle tankless work in-house instead of referring it out.

BBB-Accredited

Better Business Bureau accredited with an A+ rating and a 5-star Google review average. Brandon shows up by name in our reviews because he is on most jobs. We take complaints seriously when they happen and we resolve them.

Where We Work

Our Hickory HQ at 926 2nd Street NE, Suite 304, plus our Conover branch, give us short response times across Catawba County and into adjacent counties. We are licensed plumbers in:

Counties: Catawba County, Iredell County, Lincoln County, with Burke County edge coverage (Connelly Springs, Drexel).

Our Promise

Same-day service Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM. A flat-rate diagnostic and a written quote before any work begins. A one-year workmanship warranty on every install. Financing through Wisetack and Housecall Pro on larger repairs so plumbing emergencies are not a financial emergency too. And a master plumber - usually Brandon - on most jobs.
