Founder, journeyman plumber
Bruce Pigford
Started Fortitude in 2012 and still runs calls. Reviews name him more than anything else on this site.
Family owned, and still on the tools
Fortitude Plumbing has looked after condos, offices, and homes in Edmonton since 2012.
It started at a dining room table
Bruce Pigford was laid off in 2012. Rather than wait for the phone to ring, he started taking plumbing calls from his dining room table, one at a time, and doing the work properly enough that people called back.
Fourteen years later Fortitude looks after condo boards, offices and houses across Edmonton and the Greater Edmonton Area. It is still family owned and operated, and Bruce is still on the tools.
