About
Hello my name is Miguel from Proper Plumbing. I am a volunteer fireman and love to give back to my community. Plumbing can be simple or complex and I enjoy educating our customers to point them in the right direction for their plumbing tasks. I do flat rate pricing which i feel is in the best interest for the customer. I’ve been a plumber for 13 years and enjoy helping people out.

Miguel did an excellent job, answered all my questions and was very professional from start to finish! He installed a whole home water filter system, a condensate pump for my waterheater and an unexpected pipe leak that he had no problem taking care of on the spot so I did not have to worry or think about it. Price for everything was great. Definitely recommend and have already referred to others!

Miguel was personable and professional. He took the time to ask me questions about my existing plumbing and explained some things to me that I did not know. He was able to fix my dripping tub faucet and now I can stop stressing. I will def be calling Miguel again and recommending him to friends. Thanks Miguel !

Miguel was excellent — very knowledgeable and informative. He shared helpful tips about my heater and shut-off valve. What to do in case of emergencies. He fixed my sump pump and completely eliminated the odor. He’s a genuinely nice and honest professional. I highly recommend him for any plumbing repairs. Will be using him in the future. Thanks miguel

Miguel came to service my clogged washer pipe, which is connected to my main pipe. The problem was with the main pipe connecting from my kitchen sink, so he snaked it and gave me recommendations on how to keep it clean, and how to prevent this backlog in the future. He was very responsive, timely and consistent in his communication. He’s very friendly and gives a fair price to his customers. Miguel will become my new go to plumber for household needs! Highly recommended!!
