Boone Plumbing & Heating Supply is a wholesale distributor of plumbing, HVAC, tools and waterworks products that has been serving Ottawa, Gatineau, and the surrounding areas since 1937. Over their almost-90-year history, they have continuously worked to improve their service to their customers, to understand the challenges they face, and to anticipate their evolving wants and needs. To meet those evolving needs, they have continuously grown and evolved internally. In 1987, for example, they became a proud subsidiary of Deschenes Group. Founded in 1940, Deschenes Group is one of the top three Canadian-owned wholesaler/distributors of its kind. Then in 1997, Boone launched their retail division under the name Mondeau Bathroom & Kitchen. Though a lot has changed about the company over the past 90 years, the foundations of the company remain the same. Luc DesRosiers, vice president and general manager, says that “despite the incredible amount of growth and change that Boone has undergone, we remain true to our core values.” “We are driven to continuously create new standards of excellence in plumbing and heating distribution and to be the number one choice where employees love to work, the number one place where customers love to buy, and the number one place where manufactures love to distribute their products.” Luc comes from a family with deep ties to Boone, as his uncle and brother both served in leadership roles with the business for many years. He personally joined the company in 1985 and advanced from the ground up. He literally started by sweeping the yard, and then moved into MARCH 2026
