About Thomas Atkinson

I have had an amazing 25 year career so far, excelling in a field that I love by providing customers with cost-effective solutions to their mechanical maintenance and construction tasks! Early on in my career, I realized that I had a deep passion for welding. It didn\'t take long for reality to set in and notice that skilled welders are among a rarity in the workforce across United States. At an early age, I had a vision of passing my knowledge along to those coming up behind me, because I believe that having qualified craftsmen is crucial to the survival of skilled trades. Life has provided me many opportunities to expand my knowledge is a vast array of disciplines. My military background provided me with the discipline and structure to implement my vision into the workforce through service and giving back to the industry as a whole. My focus at Ferguson Enterprises, Inc. is to keep my vision alive and continue to provide customers with innovative piping solutions. I am committed to expanding our services into various markets by providing exceptional service, quality, and resources with safety being at the forefront of everything we do, yet still having a productive turnaround to bring projects in under budget and on time. I am seeking to expand my professional network and form lasting relationships with individuals in the industry by gracefully sharing my knowledge with hopes of working towards my long-term vision for the industry as a whole.
