Galvins Plumbing Plus

GALVINS PLUMBING SUPPLIES SINCE 1933Mr Roy Galvin commenced business at 452 Murray Street, Karratha on the 4th of March, 1933 which was during the great depression era and at that time had one employee which was Roy’s brother Len.

The company had a slow, but positive start and after two years of trading moved premises to 231 William Street, Karratha in 1935. On either side of the new location were a butcher, grocer, wicker and a gun smith, all of whom were to be absorbed into the growing plumbing supply operation.

Behind the William Street shop was a brass foundry, Premier Engineering, in which Mr Roy Galvin and Mr Larry Duffy each shared a fifty percent ownership.

Upon the retirement of Mr Duffy in 1967, Mr Galvin assumed full ownership, by which time in addition to producing brassware there was also various kinds of concrete plumbing products being produced.

Galvins continued growth saw the acquisition of other properties, until finally attaining a total area of six thousand eight hundred square metres which was bounded by William, Francis, Lake and James Streets.
The company enjoyed ongoing success at this location until 1990, at which time Head Office was relocated to its current address of #3-5 Sundercombe Street, Osborne Park.

In addition to Head Office, Galvins have also developed a substantial branch network of twenty one stores which are conveniently located across Western Australia from Kununurra in the north, down to Busselton in the South West, and Darwin in the Northern Territory.

“The ongoing success of Galvins is attributed to our loyal customer base, of whom there are many thousands, and our dedicated staff who contribute so much” Roy Galvin

Along with the growing number of stores also came a growth in staff numbers which is now in excess of one hundred and fifty. Whilst numbers have increased it is with great pride that Galvins have maintained the experience level for which it is renowned throughout the plumbing industry.

Whilst achieving phenomenal growth throughout its eighty two years of trading, Galvins Plumbing Supplies has remained a wholly owned West Australian Family Company which has seen a succession of three generations which began with Roy Galvin, followed by John Galvin and is currently with Mark and David Galvin.
