Built on Integrity. Driven by Service. Committed to Excellence

My name is Anthony Ugarte, and I founded Black Ops Plumbing in 2017 with a clear purpose: to serve people the way they deserve.

When I started working toward my plumbing license, I spent time with several well-known companies in the industry. I learned a lot—but I also saw things that didn’t sit right with me. Over time, it became clear that the industry was shifting in a direction that didn’t always put the customer first.

I knew there had to be a better way to do this. A more honest way. A more disciplined, accountable way.

So I built it.

Black Ops Plumbing is my commitment to doing things differently—providing professional plumbing services grounded in integrity, accountability, and genuine respect for every customer we serve. Every job we take on reflects that standard, because that’s what I believe this industry should be.

Plumbing Is More Than Pipes

Plumbing isn’t just a trade — it’s essential to everyday life. Clean water, safe drainage, hot showers, functioning hospitals — it all depends on plumbing done right.

When COVID hit, plumbers were on the front lines installing oxygen lines in medical facilities. Every day, we provide the clean water families use to wash their hands, cook meals, and take care of their homes.

We take that responsibility seriously.

We’re not afraid to work late, get dirty, or go the extra mile to make sure things are done correctly. That’s just part of the job.

A Lifetime Around Plumbing

Plumbing runs in my family. I learned the trade from my father, who has been a plumber for nearly 40 years and owns his own company in Youngstown, Ohio. Growing up around the business taught me what quality workmanship looks like — but more importantly, it taught me how to treat customers.

Today, our team brings over 100 years of combined plumbing experience to every job. That depth of knowledge means we’ve seen just about everything — and we know how to handle it.

Proud to Call Tampa Home

I was born and raised right here in Tampa, Florida, and I’ve lived here my whole life. This community means everything to me. I love our state, the people in it, and the opportunity to serve the place I’ve always called home.

We’re not a big national chain. We’re a local company serving our neighbors.

Every Customer Matters

One of the biggest reasons I started Black Ops Plumbing was simple: I wanted customers to feel heard.

No two plumbing situations are the same. That’s why we train our technicians to really listen and understand what you’re dealing with before offering solutions. We provide options so you can choose what works best for your home and your budget.

We also offer financing programs to help ease the financial burden when unexpected repairs come up. Plumbing issues are stressful enough — paying for them shouldn’t make it worse.
