Sturm Plumbing/The Faucet Doctor® was first featured in the November issue of the national magazine Home & Garden for their specialty plumbing services.
In August 2005, Larry was quoted in the New York Times for his expertise with specialty toilets.
In Dec 2006, the Bob Vila Show called to interview him
...makes you wonder- is Oprah next?!!!
Larry is the founder of Sturm Plumbing/The Faucet Doctor. Larry graduated from Thaddeus Stevens Trade School with a two year Associates Degree in a program for disadvantaged kids in Lancaster, PA. The funny story there was Larry never planned to be a plumber. He just went along for the ride with a high school friend taking an admissions test. The friend didn't get admitted but Larry did...it surely was the right path for his life. Larry was named at graduation "Most Outstanding Plumber" --add 44+ years experience in the field to that!
He is a registered master plumber who is considered by most plumbers to be the top dog in the specialty field of
hard-to-solve plumbing. Many years ago it started with just faucets, then moved into upflush toilets & any odd fixtures or situations that plumbers
would come across...they knew where to turn for help! Watch Larry
on a computer and you'll think your six year old is a genius, but
put Larry in a bathroom with new, odd or obsolete fixtures or a serious problem to solve...
well stand back & watch the master work!
Starting in 2016, Larry will still be available for plumbing calls but will be turning the business ownership over to his son, Jason. Years ago, Larry could not keep up with all the demands for their services, so Jason stepped up to work along side of his father. Jason has proven himself to be highly skilled in the plumbing field and just as hard of a worker as his father. He holds a Bachelor's Degree from Penn State University.
