How It Started

A Promise Made
to Rhode Island

Blue Wave Plumbing Co. grew out of a simple frustration: too many homeowners calling plumbers and waiting days for a callback, getting vague estimates, or finding surprise charges on their invoice. Jordan Lightly knew there was a better way — because he'd been doing it that way his entire career.

Born and raised in Rhode Island, Jordan spent over a decade working his way up through the trades, earning his license and his reputation one job at a time. When he founded Blue Wave, the goal was straightforward: build a plumbing company that he'd actually want to call if he were the homeowner.

That means showing up when we say we will, explaining everything in plain English, and charging a price that's fair — not padded to cover someone else's overhead. It's a simple standard, and we hold ourselves to it every single day.

"I started this company because I got tired of seeing homeowners get taken advantage of. Plumbing doesn't have to be mysterious or expensive — you just need someone honest showing up and doing it right."

Jordan personally oversees every job Blue Wave takes on. When you call, there's a good chance Jordan picks up himself. When someone's out on a job, he knows exactly what's happening. That level of involvement isn't a sales pitch — it's just how he runs things.

What We Stand For

Our Four Core Promises

Every Blue Wave job is built on these commitments. They're not slogans — they're the standard we hold every technician and every invoice to.

Show Up Fast

We call back within the hour and schedule same-day whenever possible. When it's an emergency, we treat it like one — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Charge Fairly

You'll always know the price before we start. No hidden fees, no surprise add-ons at the end. Our estimates are honest and our invoices match them.

Respect Your Home

We wear shoe covers, protect your floors, and clean up completely before we leave. Your home is treated like it's our own — because we'd expect nothing less.

Stand Behind the Work

Every repair and installation is backed by our workmanship guarantee. If something we fixed isn't right, we come back and make it right — no questions asked.
