In the scenic beauty of North Carolina, nestled where the Blue Ridge Mountains meet the horizon, Andy Long discovered his passion not in the limelight but in the vital inner workings of homes—the intricate world of plumbing. Since his early twenties, plumbing had captivated Andy, offering both challenge and profound satisfaction as he ensured the smooth flow of life’s essential resource: water.
In 2018, Andy’s journey took a significant turn as he relocated with his family to Hickory, a town brimming with promise and community spirit. Amidst the upheaval, Andy felt the familiar pull of his old trade. With his loved ones depending on him, he realized that plumbing wasn’t just a choice but a necessity—a way to establish stability in new surroundings.
After years of dedicated service with a local company, Andy had a revelation: to secure his family’s future and pursue his dreams, he needed to take a bold step. Immersing himself in study, Andy mastered every detail and regulation, culminating in earning his official licensure—a turning point marking the dawn of a new era.
In 2024, with his license in hand and a clear vision, Andy founded Coastal Care Plumbing. His goal was simple yet ambitious: to establish a plumbing company known for its quality and reliability, one his children could be proud to inherit. Coastal Care Plumbing wasn’t just a business; it was a testament to Andy’s commitment to excellence and integrity.
Andy Long’s story wasn’t just a career journey—it was a heartfelt tale of love, resilience, and a dream realized, anchored in the community he served wholeheartedly, under the banner of Coastal Care Plumbing.
As a Michigan native, I began my plumbing journey at a young age, working for a family friend’s business.
