About us

About Shephard Plumbing: our history and our crew

Our history

Like almost all companies, Shephard Plumbing’s history has a story, hard work, and a lot of determination behind it.

As a struggling teenager with no clear professional direction in his life, Jeremy Shephard was presented with an opportunity to work at Bock Plumbing. He took it, and it changed his life. Jeremy always wanted to be a business owner. After several years at Bock Plumbing, followed by years as a commercial plumber, he made the leap from taking orders to making orders. Shephard Plumbing opened in 2014 and the company has been steadily building since.

Jeremy’s journey taught him to be a better person, and he pushes his employees to do the same. When you use Shephard Plumbing, you’re supporting a local Yakima owned and operated company, and the people who work for it, which makes the community a little stronger.

Call the shop at (509) 642-4108 or (509) 728-3403, Monday to Friday, 7 to 5. We look forward to helping you.

“I had difficulty lighting the pilot on my old water heater, the technicians found the issue and worked at trying to remove the old part but with the water heater being as old as it was the parts and hardware were seized up. So I asked how much a replacement water heater would cost and told them to just replace the unit. They did a great job, both technicians were very personable, very knowledgeable, very professional.”
