Call Gavin403-988-4411Yes. Bragg Creek is one of the communities around Calgary that Happy Pipes serves. The hamlet sits about 30 km west of Calgary, where Bragg Creek meets the Elbow River, and Gavin works on homes in the hamlet and on the properties around it.
The community is named for Albert Warren Bragg and his 14-year-old brother John Thomas, who homesteaded here in 1894. Ranching came first. Today Bragg Creek is known for its shops, restaurants and mountain scenery, close to Kananaskis Country.
Water here comes two ways. Rocky View County runs the drinking water system in the hamlet, drawing from the Elbow River. Outside the county's serviced areas, homes are on private or co-op systems or their own wells, and well owners are responsible for their own supply.
In 2013 the Elbow River rose more than 2 metres, and most of the buildings in Bragg Creek were damaged. If your basement took water then, or you want to be ready next time, Gavin installs sump pumps and backwater valves.
Call 403-988-4411In the hamlet, your water starts in the Elbow River. Outside it, it may start in your own well.
On a well? Owners of private wells look after their own water supply. Gavin installs water softeners and filtration systems, and handles the plumbing from there in.

Describe the problem and Gavin will tell you what the job takes.
He is someone who comes across as professional, knowledgeable and always sees the job to completion with very reasonable pricing. He helped us through a lot of issues we were having with our hot water tank and took a systematic approach instead of making assumptions.
Gavin was great to work with. Very easy to get an appointment to look at our leaking water heater. After a quick but thorough assessment, he determined the heater needed replacement and was able to get a new one installed same day. A few days later, Gavin called to let me know that he had looked into the ruined heater, found that it was under warranty still, and that the warranty money would be discounted from the price.
Had a hot water heater issue. I did some asking around and everyone was telling me I needed a new heater. Over the phone Gavin said the hot water heater did not need to be replaced. Right on time he was in and out within 30 mins. Cost me even less then he quoted.
Gavin is hardworking, honest, efficient and with out a doubt the best person to pick if you require heating or plumbing services. I could not speak more highly of his work, ensuring my heating was fixed in a cold snap at a reasonable price.
We had a number of jobs for him to complete (kitchen faucet install, shut off valve installation in all bathrooms, bathtub leak repair, etc.). He also was on time for the consultation and scheduled work (didn't keep us waiting at all). We found his prices VERY reasonable, and would absolutely use his services again.
My toilet clogged and I could not unclogged with anything. Gavin came and fixed it in less than an hour for best rate than anyone I have called in Airdrie or in Calgary. He will even give you call ahead before he will show up.
Punctual, great job done, was honest about the work, informed me as to why I had the problem so that it wouldn't happen again, and then charged me a whole lot less then I dreamed of.
I had Gavin come in and fix, permanently, a "homemade husband repair" and he didn't even laugh at the workmanship! That's a professional! Seriously, Gavin did an excellent job to make sure I got the results I needed.
We have been using Gavin's services for over 7 years. Best plumber ever! Fast, efficient, great customer service!
2nd to none!! Experienced, dependable, reliable, diligent, qualified, thorough and efficient service from this company. Highly recommend them for any plumbing service you may need. Gavin was amazing.

If your basement has a sump pit, the pump is worth keeping in good shape. When the Elbow River rose more than 2 metres in 2013, most buildings in Bragg Creek were damaged. Signs a pump is failing include running constantly, never switching on, or new noises, and Gavin installs and replaces sump pumps.
