Falcone Plumbing and Heating, Inc. is a third generation firm that dates back to 1889. The firm originates from Mangrum & Otter, a store that sold hardware, plumbing and tin that existed over 116 years ago at 81-85 East Santa Clara St. in downtown San Jose. This store was eventually bought out by Charles Payne who later sold it to to C. L. Snyder and Dubrutz in in the early 1920's. A short time later Mr. DuBrutz died and the name was changed to C. L. Snyder Company.

Charles J. Falcone began working for Snyder in the early 1940's but, soon began to provide his own services. Operating from the garage of his home on Cherry Ave. in Willow Glen for three years he and his wife Laureta stored everything from toilets to water heaters.

Nineteen-forty-five marked the date when Charles Falcone opened his first office and shop as Charles's J. Falcone Plumbing on Lincoln Ave. Then in 1966, his store became Falcone & Snyder Co. Inc. when he bought the C.L. Snyder Co. from his old boss. Charles J. Falcone eventually sold the business to his two sons, Charles P. Falcone and David J. Falcone. Soon the two brothers split and Charles P. Falcone ran the business until his death in 1992. Today Michael, the third generation son of Charles P. Falcone, runs the business as Falcone Plumbing and Heating, Inc. at 650 Lincoln Ave. #B in San Jose, CA 95126.

In 1945 Charles J. Falcone started his plumbing and heating business out of his home in Willow Glen. He soon out grew his home and moved to 715 Lincoln Ave. In 1966 S. L. Snyder sold Charles his business and the name became Falcone & Snyder Co. Inc.

Falcone & Snyder Company serviced homes and businesses throughout the Santa Clara Valley for over 37 years until it was changed to Falcone Plumbing & Heating, Inc. in 2003.
