Spartan Industry Heroes:
Spartan Plumbing Services

With a history dating back to 1958, Spartan Plumbing Services located in Tacoma, WA, has established itself as a trusted leader in the field, providing top-notch plumbing services to the Tacoma area. Today, under the leadership of Mason McCleary, Spartan Plumbing Services continues to thrive, building on a legacy of excellence and dedication.

Mason McCleary, the current owner of Spartan Plumbing Services, grew up in the trades. His father owned an excavation company, and from a young age, Mason was exposed to the world of underground utilities, sewer lines, and water lines. In 2004, Mason's father purchased Spartan Services, transitioning from excavation to plumbing. Mason joined the business full-time in 2007, learning the ropes as a technician and gradually taking on more responsibilities. By 2018, he had bought out the business and became the sole owner, steering Spartan Plumbing Services into a new era of growth and innovation.

At Spartan Plumbing Services, the team is the heart of the business. With a crew of 20 dedicated professionals, the company prides itself on its strong culture and commitment to core values. Mason emphasizes the importance of hiring based on culture, ensuring that every team member aligns with the company's values. These include being honorable, respectful, influential, passionate, and accountable -- principles that guide every action and decision within the company.

"We do the right thing even when nobody is watching,” - Mason said.

This commitment to integrity and excellence is evident in everything Spartan Plumbing Services does, from the way they treat customers to how they manage their operations. Spartan Plumbing Services takes pride in its authentic approach to marketing and customer engagement. The company avoids stock photos, instead showcasing real images of their team members on job sites. Their social media presence, managed in-house, reflects the genuine, down-to-earth nature of the business. Mason's team understands the importance of being visible and relatable to their community, and their efforts to share real-life moments resonate with their audience.

"We're real people out here working in the field," Mason notes, emphasizing the importance of connecting with customers on a personal level. This approach has not only earned them a loyal customer base but also glowing reviews from satisfied clients.

At Spartan Plumbing Services, their arsenal includes a Spartan Tool Soldier trailer jet, which they use daily, and an older Model 758 trailer jet. Mason mentioned, "It's been through the ringer, but it's a workhorse, still holding up strong." They also rely on Spartan Tool’s Cadet portable jetter and several Spartan Tool cable machines. While Spartan Plumbing Services has seen steady success, Mason is committed to a philosophy of slow and steady growth. This approach allows him to manage the business effectively while learning and adapting along the way. Recently, the company expanded into trenchless sewer lining, a move that positions them for continued success in the evolving plumbing industry. Mason's vision for the future includes expanding the company's presence in the community and continuing to provide top-quality services to the Tacoma area.

"We’ve been in this area for a long time, and we want to make sure people know who we are and what we stand for." - Mason McCleary

Spartan Plumbing Services is more than just a plumbing company—it's a testament to the power of family, hard work, and a commitment to core values. Under Mason McCleary's leadership, the company is poised for continued success, serving the Tacoma community with the same dedication and integrity that has defined them for decades. As they look to the future, Spartan Plumbing Services remains focused on what matters most: delivering exceptional service and building lasting relationships with their customers.
