About John Albright, Founder
John Albright learned plumbing from his father in Durango, Colorado, and after serving in the Marine Corps, combined hands-on trades experience with formal training in mechanical engineering. He moved to Denver in 2011 and built Dema Plumbing into an operation generating over $100 million in annual revenue by 2023.
As John built and acquired five companies, he encountered the same back-office problems repeatedly: mountains of paperwork from builder portals, manual invoice checking consuming staff hours, and billing errors silently draining profits. No software solutions understood construction workflows.
So he built them. SubAssist emerged from real operational needs—solving document chaos, builder portal automation, and invoice verification. When InvoiceIQ uncovered $25,000 in overcharges for his own companies in one quarter, it validated his approach: solve problems he’s actually lived.
