Scoop USA Newspaper

Scoop USA Media relies on our community of readers and our advertisers, previous, longstanding, and new; without them, Scoop wouldn't be what it is today. August is National Black Business Month, and Scoop would like to pay homage to one of our longest-running advertisers, Kirk Caldwell.

Black Business Month Feature "Do It Right Plumbing"

Ten years ago, Kirk Caldwell, owner of Do It Right Drains and Plumbing, completed a service job for the Scoop's previous owner, the late Sonny Driver; he placed his first ad in the paper following that job and has advertised ever since.

Caldwell is incredibly dedicated to his profession. Do It Right's slogan, "We do It Right, The FIRST time," has proven to be just that--landing him a positive reputation in both Philadelphia and Delaware County, as noted in the hundreds of reviews that have garnered a 4.8-star rating on Google. "I try not to pay attention to that because it can affect your performance, but it feels good to know that so many people are satisfied with the work our company does," Caldwell said. "Meeting people is the best part of my job. The reviews just solidify that I was meant to do this."
