The Nowthen Plumbing Story

Then — How It All Began

Nowthen Plumbing was founded in 1996 by Jeff Boettcher, whose journey into plumbing started long before the business officially opened. In 1988, Jeff began shadowing an exceptional plumber — who also happened to be his high school hockey coach.

What began as a part-time job quickly grew into a calling. Under his coach’s mentorship, Jeff developed both technical skill and a deep respect for craftsmanship, integrity, and doing the job right.

After eight years of learning the trade and building his expertise, Jeff opened Nowthen Plumbing, bringing those same values into every home he served.

Over the decades, Jeff’s straightforward, honest approach earned the trust of thousands of families throughout the northwest metro.

Now — The Next Chapter, Built on the Same Values

Today, Nowthen Plumbing employs a skilled team of licensed plumbers along with a dedicated full-time office manager who keeps operations running smoothly. Together, the team continues the tradition Jeff began: delivering exceptional service with integrity, reliability, and care.

In 2025, Jeff retired and chose another family-owned business — Brass Tacks Plumbing (formerly Goss Plumbing) of Plymouth — to continue the Nowthen Plumbing legacy. Carlton and Cassandra Goss share the same commitment to craftsmanship, honesty, and treating customers like neighbors.

Under their ownership, Nowthen Plumbing continues operating under its original name, with:

  • The same plumbers you know and trust

  • The same phone number and service area

  • The same commitment to showing up, doing the job right, and standing behind our work

Nothing about your service changes — except that we now have even more support and resources to take care of you.
