W.J. Riley Plumbing & Heating
22 Dewey Avenue Unit #7
Warwick RI 02886 USA
|
| | |
The Why, When, Where & Who:
William J. Riley Plumbing & Heating Co., Inc. was founded in
April 1977 by William J. Riley.
Bill started the business out of his home and
eventually moved it to his garage.
 |
Working on very large condominium projects with
over 25 employees helped establish Riley Plumbing in the
plumbing industry. As the new construction market died,
Riley Plumbing scaled back its work force and worked on
more Industrial and Commercial work. |
In 1987 the shop moved from the garage to 205
Hallene Rd. In the Fall of 1993 the company made a
strong shift into the service and repair market as the
industry slowly recovered from the banking crisis of the
early Nineties. There was no new construction in the
area, therefore the change was essential and at the same
time FLAT RATE PRICING was introduced. In the Fall of
1999 the shop moved from Hallene Rd. one block to 22
Dewey Ave. It was a downsizing that was a long time in
coming. The move was very quick and allowed for better
management.
This is where we remain today working with family everyday.
Elizabeth, Bill and Corinne’s daughter joined
the business temporarily in 1988 and has never left. She
now serves as office manger and our “ Girl Friday”.
She’s the one you usually talk to when you call and
she knows many of you by name and address.
Michael Riley has worked here on and off since he
was in high school. He returned back in 2002 serving now
as our certified backflow tester and purchasing agent.
Michael Muzzy has also returned. He worked for
Bill as an apprentice back in the early 90’s and left
after he and Elizabeth married. (you know how it is
working for your new father in law) After many years as
a journeyman plumber and supply house manager he
returned as the Supervisor and estimator to help manage
the business into the future. As for more family...the
grandchildren, Michaela & Robert occasionally show
up to do some filing. A few of you may have met Rob who
occasionally helps Dad out on weekends.

Serving the Industry
Since starting the company in 1977 Bill and
his wife Corinne have been very active members in the
Rhode Island Plumbing, Heating and Cooling Contractors

& Treasurer. He also served a three year term in a
national capacity as Zone One Director on the Board of
Directors for the National PHCC Association in the
Nineties. He is also a member of QSC (an enhanced
service group) and is also active in many other
organizations that strive to improve the Plumbing
& Heating Industries. Early in the year 2000 Bill
was appointed to the RI State Apprenticeship
Committee. In January 2001 he was appointed the RI
Plumbing Board of Examiners. Corinne has always been
an active Auxiliary member both locally and
nationally. In 2001 she became the National PHCC
Woman's Auxiliary Treasurer serving for four years.
Today in 2006 Bill still serves on both boards and
