Providence's Locally Owned
Plumbing Company Since 2005
We're not a franchise. We're your Providence neighbors — a family-owned plumbing company that lives, works, and raises our families right here in Providence, Rhode Island.
Our Story
Providence Plumbing, Providence Values
Kwik Plumbing was founded in 2009 by Providence native Mike Kwiatkowski — a third-generation plumber who learned the trade from his father and grandfather, both of whom spent their careers serving Providence homes and businesses. The name “Kwik” is a nod to the family surname, a promise to customers, and a statement of values: responsive, reliable, and always available when you need us most.
What started as a one-man operation out of a pickup truck has grown into a full-service Providence plumbing company with a fleet of fully-stocked service vans, a team of licensed and trained technicians, and a reputation built entirely on word-of-mouth referrals from satisfied Providence customers. We've never spent a dollar on a national franchise fee — every dollar we invest goes into better equipment, better training, and better service for our Providence community.
Over 20 years and more than 4,500 completed jobs later, we're still here — still local, still answering the phone personally, and still treating every Providence homeowner and business owner the way we'd want our own family treated.
Our Team
Every plumber on the Kwik Plumbing team is Rhode Island state-licensed and has completed a formal apprenticeship through the PHCC program. We don't hire unlicensed laborers or subcontract work to strangers — every technician who enters your Providence home is a vetted Kwik employee who has passed background checks and ongoing technical training.
Our Commitment to Providence
We take our role as a Providence business seriously. We hire locally, purchase materials from Rhode Island suppliers when possible, and give back to our community through sponsorships of Providence youth sports leagues and annual participation in Habitat for Humanity builds in the greater Providence area.

🏆 Kwik Plumbing by the Numbers
What We Stand For
The Kwik Plumbing Difference
Honesty First
We tell you what you need to know, not what makes us the most money. If a repair makes more sense than replacement, we'll tell you. If a DIY fix is appropriate, we'll tell you that too.
Speed Without Sacrifice
We move fast — but never at the expense of quality. Our fully-stocked vans and experienced plumbers allow us to work efficiently without cutting corners.
Community Investment
Providence is our home. We hire locally, buy locally, and give back locally. We're not a franchise — we're your neighbor with a wrench.
Continuous Learning
Plumbing technology evolves constantly. Our team participates in ongoing training on new materials, techniques, and code requirements to stay current.
What Providence Says About Kwik Plumbing
“I've been using Kwik Plumbing for 12 years across three Providence properties. They know our buildings, remember our history, and always show up when they say they will. In a world of impersonal franchise plumbers, these guys are the real deal — true Providence professionals.”
Michael D. — Providence RI Landlord
“Had three plumbers quote my bathroom remodel. Kwik was honest that I didn't need as much work as the others recommended, gave me the lowest quote, and did the best job. That kind of integrity is rare. I refer them to everyone in the East Side neighborhood.”
Claire B. — East Side, Providence RI
“As the property manager for a 24-unit building on Broad Street, I need plumbers I can trust to be professional with tenants and reliable with timing. Kwik Plumbing delivers every time. They're the only plumber I call for our Providence properties.”
Thomas W. — Property Manager, Providence RI
