Nick Marine is one plumber who truly understands what it means to protect the health of the nation. Not to mention protecting the freedoms and natural resources of our nation.
Owner of Marine Plumbing in Marietta, GA, Nick is the 2010 volunteer president of the Naval Enlisted Reserve Association (NERA) ,the only military and veterans organization helping enlisted reservists. Nick divides his time between his business and Washington D.C., recently shutting down his business for two weeks so his plumbers could completely renovate an executive and VIP/special guest bathroom at NERA’s Fall Church headquarters.
“After I was elected National President of NERA, I wanted to make an immediate contribution,” recalls the third-generation master plumber. “I started with what I knew best, which was bathroom plumbing.”
Nick also donated part of his fees last fall to assist American Standard in retrofitting 21 homes in the Atlanta-metro with water-saving showerheads and WaterSense labeled toilets and bath faucets. The volunteers seemed to like Nick as much as they liked the new products:
“This is a fascinating project and the plumbers that American Standard are using are superb. I would use them for anything. Marine Plumbing, Nick Marine and Tony Little 770-426-8060.”
