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*

I needed someone to unclog a slow draining Kohler jacuzzi bathtub, including repairing the stopper mechanism that was stuck so the tub would not drain at all. I was very lucky to call Proper Plumbing, who responded within minutes to my search and was able to come by and fix my problem within a few hours. He was quick, smart, knowledgeable, and a very nice young man. I will call definitely call him again when I have another plumbing issue.

Let me first say i am that person who handles all the repairs in my home and would try over and over again to get it done before i have a professional come to my home. This necessary repair had to be done and i debated for a while. Miguel was very professional and punctual. His work was first class and left no mess once the work was completed. He also explained to me the job he did and answered all my questions afterwards. I will definitely hire Miquel again.
