Jarrell’s Plumbing is a family business in every sense of the word. His father started the business back in 1958. After high school David went into the service, and when he came out, he started in the family business. David and his father worked side-by-side for 20 years before his father decided to retire. David took over the business at that point and eventually moved the company from Houston to Henderson, the family’s home town. This allowed David to be closer to his family, as well as serve the families of the Henderson community. Now David’s son, who is a licensed Master Plumber, is working alongside David getting ready to take over the business as David starts to look at retiring. David has decided that, at 76 years old with a lifetime in the industry, it’s time to relax a little. He says he has continued working so long mostly out of necessity. “There aren’t enough young plumbers” he says, echoing the concerns of many other business owners.
