Our family has built Blue Monkey one residential plumbing job at a time. Wayne leads the plumbing work, David has grown from apprentice to Red Seal journeyman, and Doreen manages the office and looks after our clients. Each of us has a different responsibility. The reputation belongs to all three.
Father | Owner and lead plumber
Wayne owns Blue Monkey and works on the tools alongside his son. He assesses the plumbing problem, explains the work he recommends and takes responsibility for the work our family puts its name to.
His qualifications span two countries: a South African Red Seal plumbing qualification and a B.C. Certificate of Qualification in plumbing with a Red Seal endorsement.
