VINCENT LOPORCHIO

Vincent Loporchio was an ambitious child who started plumbing with his father when he was still in junior high school.

In 1978, he became the youngest person to become a licensed journeyman plumber.

He has since added to his licenses and now has a plumbing contractor’s license (C-36), general contractor’s license (B), heating (C-20), sanitation (C-42) and fire sprinkler (C-16).

While his father’s company did repair plumbing, Vincent preferred new construction.

In 1984 he opened VHL Plumbing, which specializes in new and remodel plumbing, as well as fire sprinklers for tract homes, apartments, hotels and commercial properties.

VHL Plumbing designs and supplies complete plumbing and fire sprinkler plans and calculations. VHL Plumbing is long-time contractor with the City of Burbank to perform maintenance on their buildings, including police, fire, City Hall and many other projects.

In 2015, VHL completed a 183-unit Marriot in Burbank and has several large Burbank projects on the horizons in 2018.
