In 1906, Carl Joseph "Joe" Erickson immigrated to America from Sweden, settling in Chicago. Joe, an accomplished plumber, signed with Plumbers Local 130 and set out to live the American Dream, opening his own shop at 58th and Halsted. The reputation of C.J. Erickson Plumbing grew quickly. In just a few short years, Erickson's commitment to quality workmanship, professional service and fair pricing resulted in a rapidly expanding business.
By 1946, the company had outgrown its original location and moved to more spacious headquarters on 87th Street, just east of Ashland Avenue. After World War II, Joe Erickson's son, Norm joined the firm after serving in the military.
In 1975, C.J. Erickson Plumbing relocated once again to its present headquarters in Alsip, IL. Bill Erickson, Norm's son and 3rd generation, lead the business into the 80's and 90's. In 2007 the leadership changed again to the current CEO and 4th Generation Matt Erickson.
