Steiner Plumbing & Heating moved into a new building at the end of August. It's located at 514 Main St. S., right next to their old one.
Carla Wolfenden, who co-owns the business with her husband Chris Wolfenden, says that they decided to move to a new location because they needed more space.
"We have warehouse and storage space now... We can carry more parts both for our guys and for our customers, so it makes it more convenient for everyone. We now have office space for ourselves, which we really never had before. Our admin staff have space to move and it's just not cramped... It's just an overall better place to work for everyone... Most of all, we have a showroom now," she adds.
Wolfenden went on to say that the new showroom gives them the ability to showcase products, many of which people don't expect them to sell, to potential customers.
"Hot tubs [are] our newest one. We just became an Arctic Spa dealer this year and we've actually just placed our first few orders for customers, which is very exciting... We do have three on display. We have Primo Smoker barbecues, which are gorgeous high-end barbecues... We are a Napoleon dealer as well, so we can get in any barbecue that Napoleon sells," she adds.
According to Wolfenden, they also sell gas fireplaces, electric fireplaces and wood stoves.
She feels that it's a big relief to finally move in after buying the property around a year ago.
"It's a luxury for us to have all this space... I'm sure everyone... at our shop feels the same way. You're not on top of each other. You're able to find things easier. It's more organized because we do also have an inventory person now," Wolfenden adds.
Carla Wolfenden went on to say that they have amazing customers and that thanks to them, they didn't have to lay anyone off during the COVID-19 pandemic.
