Scot Pearce established Water To Waste Plumbing & Drainage in Henderson in 2008 and recently expanded with a new branch in Kumeu in 2024.

The company is a full-service plumbing and drainage provider primarily serving the domestic market.  A member of Master Plumbers since 2021, Scot joined the Auckland/Northland Branch executive committee in 2022 and was most recently voted on to the board of its national office.

He brings a wealth of industry experience and a hands-on approach to his roles, both in business and on the board. As a foundation member of Business West, Scot joined the board in June 2023 and was appointed Secretary in early 2024. He values a “boots on the ground” approach and emphasizes a strong work ethic coupled with “good old family values.” Scot is also passionate about business coaching and mentoring.

He is an active member of a professional networking organization, where he has held various leadership roles, including mentoring new members. Scot encourages more members to engage in coaching and mentorship to gain fresh perspectives and make the most of Business West’s offerings. He believes that adapting to the fast-paced changes in digital and mechanical technologies; such as AI, 3D printing, robotics, and drones; is one of the biggest challenges facing businesses today.

 “In today’s world, being open and adaptable to new ideas is essential for long-term success,” he says.
