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. *Military/ first responders 10% discount*

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 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!!

Miguel at Proper Plumbing was absolutely outstanding! My toilet broke unexpectedly, and he responded to my request immediately and had it repaired the very same day. He even went the extra mile by picking up all the materials needed, making the entire process completely stress-free. The quality of his work, professionalism, fair pricing, and exceptional customer service far exceeded my expectations. It’s rare to find someone who is not only knowledgeable and highly skilled but who genuinely takes pride in their craft. I can confidently say I found my plumber today!
