Co-opp Plumbing was formed

Bob “Pops” Rader and his brother-in-law, Dave Cochran, formed CO-OPP Plumbing in 1984. With a fleet of 10 service trucks, Bob & Dave specialized in residential plumbing construction and commercial construction.

The Family company continues to grow

In 2001, after substantial growth in commercial and residential construction, Dave retired leaving Bob as sole owner of CO-OPP Plumbing. That same year, Bob’s son, Andrew Rader, joined the company as it continued to grow while expanding into industrial, educational and public utility plumbing construction.
