Humble Beginnings
Our History
After serving in the European Theatre during WW II, Joe Morales married a lovely woman from Long Island, NY by the name of Grace Winslow. A mechanical pipe fitter by trade, Joe and Grace moved from their home in New York to Dayton, Ohio where Joe completed his college degree.
Convinced that Nashville, Tennessee was the place to be, they moved South to start a mechanical contracting business. A few years into this venture and finding a market constantly short on supplies, Joe & Grace opened a small plumbing supply business.
In 1957, Joe was persuaded to start a manufacturer’s rep firm. He sold his interest on the wholesale side and formed the J.H. Morales Sales Corporation. Ten children and six decades later you find Tim Morales & Associates, Inc. and a family that has been blessed by our industry.
Founded on this rich heritage, TMI strives daily to meet Joe and Grace’s high standards and expectations. How can we serve you?
