Prime Plumbing & Heating is a family-owned Denver plumbing, heating and cooling company founded in 2012 by Colorado Master Plumber Nathan Padilla.
For more than 13 years, we’ve been the plumber Denver homeowners and businesses trust, serving Denver, Arvada, Aurora, Broomfield, Commerce City, Lakewood, Thornton, and Westminster.
Plumbing You Can Trust. A Jingle You Won’t Forget. Quality, Integrity, and Value.
We live and work in the communities we serve, so we treat our customers like family. Friends and neighbors, because that’s what you are, and we’re always ready to lend a helping hand, no matter the hour.
Prime is the family-owned Denver plumber residents and business owners turn to when they want a real person to answer the phone. Because we don’t carry the franchise fees or private equity marketing budgets of the bigger competitors, every customer is treated as a VIP, every single time, from a leaky faucet to a full repipe.
At Prime, your service isn’t just another item on a checklist. We’re committed to quality, personalized work that gets it right the first time.
Five things set us apart, and each one comes with a promise you can hold us to:
That’s worth a call. Reach us at (720) 542-8153 or schedule service online today.
Prime Plumbing & Heating was founded in 2012 by Nathan Padilla, a lifelong Denver native who soldered his first copper joint at nine years old. He graduated at the top of an apprenticeship class of 68, earned his Colorado Master Plumber license in 2007, and added his ICC National Standard Master Mechanical certification in 2013.
More than 27 years in the trades later, he still sets the standard every Prime technician follows. His license is verifiable through the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies, and the company holds Colorado Plumbing License #PC3045.
Nathan got sober the same year he founded Prime, and that resilience is built into the company. We’ve grown from a two-person operation into a team completing 3,000 to 4,000 jobs a year, an estimated 15,000 to 20,000 since we opened, and we treat every one as if it were in our own home.
We’re human, so on the rare occasion something goes wrong, we act fast, take full responsibility, and work until you’re 100% satisfied. When it can’t wait, our emergency plumbing service is one phone call away.
The more we serve Denver, the more we want to give back. Nathan sponsors the annual Denver Walk to End Alzheimer’s at City Park in memory of his mother, who passed from Alzheimer’s in 2021, and supports Stout Street Foundation, the Commerce City recovery program where he got sober.
These are personal commitments from the person whose name is on the company.
