“Our secret to success is in having the answer and materials our plumbing customers need. They trust us and count on us.” said Fisher, “For 50 years, we’ve prided ourselves on honest, outstanding service for our plumbing customers. Now its time to celebrate our heritage with our employees and customers.”

Founded by Joe Fisher and Ralph Long, Delwood Supply Co. began as an off-shoot of Warren Plumbing Supply in 1963. Shortly after, Walter Deanna joined Joe, adding another level of expertise. Very quickly, Delwood Supply became known as the plumber’s preferred resource by providing unsurpassed product knowledge and customer service.

“When we started we did business on a handshake and good old fashion hard work.

That hasn’t changed in 50 years,” quoted Founder, Joe Fisher, “I am proud to say that Delwood is still taking care of our customers the way we did 50 years ago,” he added.

In 1974, Joe’s son, Mark, joined the business, ensuring another generation of plumbing knowledge and service. To meet demand and to expand service for Delwood plumbing customers, Mark opened a second location in Livonia, MI in 1994. Currently, Mark serves as President of Delwood Supply Co.
