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.

Outstanding service and expertise!
After seeing all the high reviews, I reached out to Proper Plumbing to install a water treatment system I had purchased. Miguel messaged me back almost immediately. I had actually attempted the installation myself first, but ran into a major issue when I noticed my main pipe was corroded.
I sent Miguel photos of the situation, and he gave me a very fair quote to replace the corroded pipe and complete the water treatment setup. He arrived right on time and did an amazing job with both the replacement and the installation. On top of being kind, punctual, and professional, he even took extra time to show me how to turn off my main water valve in case of an emergency and explained of all my other plumbing questions and concerns.
I couldn't be happier with the work and highly recommend Miguel!

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 !
