Watters Plumbing has its hard working reputation in the Fox Cities and surrounding areas because of the effort and commitment put in from our team members. Our Remodeling Department Manager, Mike Leatherman, is one of our exemplary team members. Learn more about him, today!
Mike’s role at Watters Plumbing:
Mike Leatherman has worked at Watters Plumbing for nine years. He started with us as a carpenter and he’s now our Remodeling Department Manager. In his current role, his days are full with customer meetings, project walkthroughs and sending out estimates.
Favorite part of his job:
When he was a carpenter, he enjoyed working with his hands and creating something new for the customer then seeing their appreciation. He always strived to make the customer’s day/life a little better. In his current role, Mike finds the same joy with working community members and helping make family’s situations easier through a Watters Plumbing remodeling job.
Mike’s best plumbing tip:
“There is a reason that we hire professionals.”
Plumbing is difficult work with a lot of moving parts from scheduling, material acquisition and costs. Mike’s team gets a lot of calls to homes that need DIY mistakes fixed, and all too often customers end up paying for a particular project twice. No matter how handy someone may be, hiring a professional plumbing team equipped with the right knowledge and experience will save money in the long run.
Outside of work:
While work and life in general may be stressful, Mike likes to let loose and have fun. He always goes out of his way to make someone smile or feel good every day. In his off-time, he likes to spend his time outside either hunting or fishing. The last 15 years he has coached youth sports (baseball and football). He loves his family. Mike is a veteran and a die hard Bluejay!
Final thoughts:
While every remodel project presents different and challenging situations, Mike feels lucky to have a very skilled and knowledgeable team both within his department and inside the company in general. Everyone works hard and has offered assistance throughout the years he has worked at Watters Plumbing.
“I am very lucky to be surrounded by the best co-workers here at Watters Plumbing.”
