We have built our business by attracting, educating, training and promoting the best people in our trade, so that both they and our company can grow and prosper.

What is Merit Shop? It is a business way of life for our company and its employees.

Since the beginning in 1973, Plumb House has promoted the Merit Shop philosophy in all of its dealings with everyone: employees, subcontractors and customers.

We believe that the true worth of a company is its employees: their safety, health, attitudes, skills and productivity.

The Merit Shop philosophy emphasizes a worker's individual effort, ambition and achievement.

Merit Shop employees have unlimited opportunities to improve their careers through a bonus and promotion system that rewards individual and team achievements. It is a system that stresses individual growth and promotion through positive attitudes and hard work.
