Gary Ford started out working at his grandfather’s plumbing company and supply house in Pennsylvania. It was his introduction to the trade and to a business run by family.
In 1992, Gary founded Vista Plumbing in Bend. Over the years, the company’s work has grown to include residential and commercial new construction, remodels, additions, and service and repairs.
Family remains part of the day-to-day business. Gary’s two brothers work alongside him, and his mom helps with the clerical side.
Over the years, Vista has grown into a full plumbing operation with crews handling different phases of construction throughout Central Oregon. Gary remains closely involved in the business, backed by plumbers working underground and underfloor, rough-in, trim, remodel, and service work.
Today, Vista serves Bend, Sisters, Redmond, La Pine, Prineville, and Sunriver—the communities where we live and work.
