The best advertisement DeTemple Co. ever had was the city of Portland
Our Story
At DeTemple Company, Inc., our legacy dates back to 1895 in Portland, Oregon. Founded by John DeTemple Sr., our company has been dedicated to providing exceptional plumbing and heating services to the community for over 125 years. Our story began when John DeTemple Sr. started working in the plumbing trade, previously employed by Clark Steamfitting and Donnerberg Plumbing as early as 1891. Donnerberg's influence led the DeTemple brothers, Fred, John Jr., and Walter, to choose plumbing as a lifelong occupation. By 1907, the brothers had established a solid business, renowned for building intricate plumbing and steam heating systems for the city's iconic buildings and residential homes.
