My home's storage type water heater broke over a holiday weekend and I reached out to BigBear Plumbing for options. Gabriel responded immediately, came by to try options to fix it, identified the cost & delays involved in ordering parts to attempt a fix. After discussions, he suggested we get a tankless model which we had been considering, and helped identify what was needed. Gabriel did an excellent job helping us purchase and install such a model, and I recommend his services as a reliable plumber

Gabriel and The Big Bear Plumbing team have done a fantastic job with all my plumbing needs. Big Bear's Plumbing professionalism and expertise has really shown on the quality of work performed. Big Bear Plumbing replaced all the water lines (copper with ProPress fittings) which, are HIGHLY recommended than the traditional copper welding to help eliminate corrosion and potential leaks. Isolation valves were recommended and added by Gabriel to isolate each restroom and kitchen, for future remodel and eliminate from the entire house left with out water service. Big Bear Plumbing also replaced all waste lines with high quality ABS pipe and also added multiple clean-outs around the home for convenient waste line future maintenance. Big Bear Plumbing also added a garage sink and a water softener that has made a world of a difference! I highly recommend Big Bear Plumbing and will definitely reach out to them for all my future plumbing needs!
