Sugar Bear Home Services
Company Overview
We focus on one happy client at a time!
The name Sugar Bear originated as a fun moniker, but it evolved into something more personal and meaningful.
Sugar Bear stands apart from other companies; I wanted to develop a brand that is distinct and memorable.
I prioritized hearing what our community has to say about service providers.
I emphasized the importance of communication and punctuality in my team, to carefully diagnose issues and provide the best options, while ensuring cleanliness from start to finish.
We ensure our tools and vehicles are of the highest quality, and we provide training for our technicians on how to use them effectively.
I aimed to give clients options for repairs, so they can make informed decisions about their investments.
I aspired to build a service company that would endure for generations, bringing on board the best team members who are committed to helping people.
As a second-generation plumber, HVAC, and electrical technician, I launched my service journey in 1996 with a local firm in San Bruno, and that’s where I got the name Sugar Bear.
I ventured into different fields, yet plumbing always felt like my true vocation.
I find joy in helping others; solving problems, providing solutions, and completing repairs is what I love.
The smiles of happy customers motivate me.
For over twenty years, I have been supporting my wife and our five children, duplicating my skills and services for other technicians.
The growth I’ve witnessed over the years is both humbling and motivating, and I am thankful for the encouragement from families, community members, out-of-town property owners, and local businesses.
Without your support, none of this would be possible, and I give thanks to my ""heavenly father.""
Today, we proudly employ over twenty individuals and operate 15 service vehicles, and we hold licenses in all trades.

Recommended Customer Reviews

Sugar Bear Plumbing came out last night (the day after Christmas), on a plumbing emergency that my neighbor was experiencing. I had called another company, and they had no one available at that hour, but Sugar Bear came through! They came out in the rain, after hours, and fixed the plumbing emergency. Technician was knowledgeable, kind, and answered all my questions. Highly recommend!!

Great service! Ian went the extra mile to track down a valve for old shower diverter.

I cannot say enough good things about Sugar Bear and, specifically, about Lawrence who came to help me with our hvac. He was professional, knowledgeable and lovely to have in my home. He helped me work through some maintenance issues then patiently walked me through how to take care of these on my own going forward. This is my second experience with Sugar Bear (they replaced our hot water heater earlier in the year), and both have been fantastic. Home repairs can be so fraught and Sugar Bear has certainly made it less so for me. Highly HIGHLY recommend.

I called Sugar Bear Plumbing due to a blocked/clogged drain issue that caused overflow drainage mess in our garage. Chris was able to come out in an hour after I called. He was very professional and explained the issues and solutions thoroughly. He efficiently fixed our issue and made sure I was satisfied. He also didn't leave a mess for me to clean up. All in all, very satisfied and would recommend Sugar Bear and Chris!

I left post on there other Yelp site. Highly recommend Sugar Bear Plumbing. Very professional.

terrible experience - verbally said would offer specific services that were then not included in written quote. Once repair work was being done, tried to chair more for the final air shaft (because they had to remove one piece of plywood). Would not use this company again.

Thank heavens, after 6 visits my moms replacement furnace is working!!! The one installed by Sugar Bear Plumbing last summer failed recently.
Replacement furnace failed repeatedly, what a nightmare!
I would give less stars if possible.
