About
The Local Plumber
MBTJ Bangert Inc. CSLB (Contractors State License Board) # 752497 Owner Bill Bangert’s great-grandfather, Michael Stenson, came to Chicago from Ireland around 1890. He started a sewer business connecting house sewers to the new Chicago sewer system when the city raised streets 10 feet in order to prevent major flooding. There’s an old picture showing him in work shoes, oversized dark pants tied with strings around the ankles, a white shirt and tie, and a suit coat, along with a shovel and wrench tied together with string in one hand. His son, George, followed in his profession, taking up new plumbing construction in Chicago schools and large commercial buildings. Bill’s dad started working in this industry in 1947 with his Uncle George as an apprentice plumber. Bill has repaired and installed plumbing in every type of building, from residential properties to high-rise structures and big commercial offices. After attending college at the University of California, Santa Barbara, in 1982, Bill began working with his dad and brothers (Jim, Matt, and Tom) on plumbing projects throughout California, serving hospitals, high-rise buildings, and homes.
