Bernie - Owner & Plumber

My Story

I started my plumbing career at just 17 years old, learning the trade from experienced mentors who taught me the value of honest work and quality craftsmanship. Those early years gave me a solid foundation in all aspects of plumbing, from basic repairs to complex installations.

After gaining valuable experience working for other companies, I decided to start my own business. In 2013, I founded Pipe Dream Plumbing with a simple mission: provide reliable, honest plumbing services that put customers first.

As an owner-operator, I personally handle every job. This means when you call Pipe Dream Plumbing, you're dealing directly with me - someone with 23 years of experience who cares about getting the job done right the first time.
