Your Trusted Plumbing and Heating Experts in Helena, MT
Three Brothers Plumbing & Heating was founded on the values of family, craftsmanship, and integrity passed down from Thomas and Francis Barnes. Our legacy began in Texas with Thomas, a Korean War Navy electrician, who instilled a deep respect for the trades in his sons Dominic and Weston. After relocating to Montana in 1994, the brothers honed their skills through local contractors and union membership before launching their own operation from a garage in Helena. Incorporated in 2000, we grew into a regional leader with over 15 licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians, collectively bringing 100+ years of experience.Our commitment to rapid response times, meticulous workmanship, and transparent pricing earned us a trusted reputation. In 2025, native Montanans Jason, Ryan, Jordan, and Brad acquired the company, continuing our mission to serve with character and purpose while exceeding customer expectations through innovation and integrity.
