Jack Ward opened the doors in 1947 on a handful of principles: hard work, integrity, value, and the kind of customer service that gets you called back by name. Seventy-eight years and three generations later, that's still how we run the company.
Jack's son, Tommy Ward, ran the shop for more than four decades. Today, Jack's grandson — Bartley Burnette — leads the business, with the same crew of journeyman plumbers who've been with us for years answering the phones at 3 AM and pulling permits at 8.
"The ease of doing business is the biggest difference — it's all based on the service level."
— Bartley Burnette, Owner
Hung the shingle on a Nashville post-war boom. Built the reputation on the simple promise that the work would be done right the first time.
Jack's son carried the company through four decades — adding commercial plumbing, restaurants, the Metro backflow programs, and the crew that still runs the trucks today.
Tommy's nephew, Jack's grandson. Same family values, modern tools — video inspection, hydro-jetting, trenchless repair — and the same Nashville phone number we've answered since 1947.
Members get priority dispatch, repair discounts, and a plumbing system that lives a lot longer. Pick the tier that fits your home — switch anytime.
Plans cover existing systems in good working order. New customer? Start with an inspection — we'll confirm the right tier together.
We don't run flashy ads. Most of our calls come from neighbors telling their neighbors — sometimes for the third or fourth generation in the same Nashville house.
My family has used Jack Ward & Sons for as long as I can remember. Three different houses, two different decades, same family on the truck. Honest pricing, no upsell, just gets it done.
Called at 11 PM with a burst pipe. They were at our front door inside an hour, fixed it, and the bill was less than we expected. Real Nashville company — they know what they're doing.
We've used Bartley and his crew for our restaurant grease-trap service for years. Reliable, on schedule, fair priced, and they actually answer the phone. Won't use anyone else.
A whole-home repipe or a tankless install shouldn't drain the savings account. We partner with major lenders to offer flexible terms on qualifying work — get the fix now, pay over time.
