Our Team

Our Team

Housewright's collaborative approach with clients, architects and subcontractors is an extension of the team dynamic within the company. Our employees are not only chosen for their expertise, but also for their abilities to take initiative and to think ahead. It is a team of strong individuals, as is evident by how many key Housewright people have been self-employed and/or owned their own small companies. Strong individuals working together make a strong team.

Our project managers are charged with the responsibilities of keeping the job within budget and on schedule while providing the best value to the client. They work within the collaborative culture that is Housewright, with a constant flow of information and interaction from the field with office staff, clients, architects, interior designers and subcontractors.

Nicholas Piper

Nicholas Piper

HVAC & Plumbing Project Manager

New to the Team as of May 16th, 2022.

Nick has been been involved in the Plumbing/HVAC trades since he was twelve years old. Nick learned the trade by working alongside his grandfather. His grandfather owned his own plumbing and heating business located in Fairlee, VT for over 35 years. Nick began assisting his grandfather on weekends or over school vacations at an early age. After four and a half years of attending Plymouth State College, Nick started working a few different jobs to see what he might be interested in making a career. Nick’s grandfather had other plans for Nick and during his career exploration signed Nick up for plumbing apprenticeship classes in 2000-2001, after about six months of working various jobs, Nick decided to commit to the plumbing trades full time alongside his grandfather. Nick received his Master Plumbing license in 2004 and jumped right into owning his own business while also occasionally working for other firms when family needs made it necessary for a change in pace. Nick has now decided that the HWC team is where he’s intended to be and we are extremely excited to be welcoming Nick.

Nick shares the same core principles of high-quality customer service and attention to detail and we are excited he has joined the team. Nick is a Licensed VT & NH Master Plumber, Certified Refrigerant & Propane Technician.
