From the Marine Corps to Ocean County's Most Trusted Plumber
Before Dave Moore picked up a pipe wrench, he was a parachute rigger in the United States Marine Corps, serving from 1990 to 1994. When his service ended, he went straight into the trade — and graduated at the top of his master plumbing class.
He didn't open Patriot Plumbing because it seemed like a good business move. He opened it because he knew how to do the work right, he wanted to build something his family could be proud of, and he genuinely loves this community. Twenty-plus years later, that hasn't changed one bit.
Dave holds NJ Master Plumber License #11968, is a member of the Southern Ocean County Master Plumbers Association, and completes an 8-hour recertification class every two years to stay current on code changes and materials. He'll tell you that's just part of doing the job properly. We think it says everything about the kind of plumber he is.
A Real Family Running a Real Business
Patriot Plumbing has been a family-run operation since it was founded in 2003. The owner oversees estimating and brings decades of industry knowledge to each project — making sure every job is scoped correctly and every customer knows exactly what to expect before work begins.
When you hire Patriot Plumbing, you're choosing a local, family-run business that takes pride in its reputation, its work, and the relationships it builds with every customer.
