Company History

Plumbing was the original trade. The founder moved into hydronic heating after seeing the comfort advantages of heating with water. Early work focused on existing systems in older East Bay homes. As PEX tubing became common, the company took on more installations as well as repairs.

The business grew by working with homeowners who wanted a dust-free, quiet heating option. Over time Forbes Plumbing expanded services to include hot water recirculation and related plumbing work while keeping a clear focus on radiant systems.

Leadership

The founder has long roots in local plumbing and heating work and keeps a hands-on presence. Leadership maintains regular contact with customers and local contractors and stays involved in regional trade groups and supply channels. That local involvement helps Forbes Plumbing Berkeley CA stay familiar with common issues in older Berkeley houses and newer East Bay builds.
