Trusted Plumbing and HVAC Services in Arvada, CO
When a pipe bursts at 2 a.m. or the furnace quits during a January cold snap, you need someone who answers and shows up. We’re a family-owned plumbing, heating, and cooling company, and Arvada is one of the Denver metro cities we serve.
Our regular hours are Monday through Sunday, 7am to 9pm, and we run 24/7 emergency service for the calls that can’t wait. For everything else we’re often at your door the same day, sometimes within one to two hours.
Every job is quoted upfront before anyone touches anything, and it’s backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee.
Plumbing, heating, and cooling built for Arvada homes
Arvada’s older neighborhoods around Olde Town have been through decades of Front Range winters. Freeze-thaw cycles put real stress on supply lines every year, and the clay-heavy soil across much of the Denver metro shifts with seasonal moisture, which is hard on aging sewer laterals.
That’s the context we work in, and it’s why we diagnose before we recommend. We scope sewer lines with a camera so you get an answer instead of a guess, and on the heating side we verify gas pressure, temperature rise, and heat exchanger condition rather than swapping parts and hoping.
Nathan Padilla founded Prime in 2012 and still runs it. He’s a Denver native, a Colorado Master Plumber licensed since 2007, and he holds the ICC National Standard Master Mechanical certification he earned in 2013. The company operates under Colorado Plumbing License #PC3045.
Our plumbing and HVAC services in Arvada
We cover the whole home and small commercial system under one roof, so one call reaches a team that can read the full picture instead of just the piece in front of them.
Emergency plumbing in Arvada
Burst pipes, overflowing toilets, gas leaks, and mainline backups don’t wait for business hours. Our emergency plumbing service runs 24/7, and we’ll tell you what it costs before we start. You’ll get a text with your technician’s name and arrival time before they show up.
Bathroom plumbing and remodeling in Arvada
We handle everything from a single fixture swap to the full plumbing side of a bathroom remodel, including supply lines, drains, and vents. We coordinate around your schedule, because being without a shower for a week isn’t a small thing.
Water heater service in Arvada
Hot water isn’t optional. We repair and replace tank and tankless units, and we’ll show you what we’re seeing so the repair-versus-replace call is yours to make.
When it’s time for a new one, we walk you through sizing, fuel type, and recovery rate so the unit fits how your household actually uses hot water. See water heater installation or read up on tankless water heaters if you’re weighing the switch.
Air conditioning and cooling in Arvada
We service air conditioners, swamp coolers, and heat pumps. AC repair covers weak airflow, warm air, short cycling, and the odd noises that usually mean something is about to fail.
Annual AC maintenance keeps the system efficient and catches the drainage problems that let mold grow inside the unit. It’s the cheapest work we do and it prevents the most expensive.
Drain cleaning and sewer repair in Arvada
Multiple slow drains at once usually means a mainline issue, not a local clog. Our drain cleaning covers snaking and high-pressure hydro jetting for grease and buildup that a cable won’t touch.
For anything structural we camera the line first. Clay pipe past 60 years and cast iron past 100 are both at the end of their service life, and sewer line repair includes trenchless options when the damage is contained enough to allow it. We also handle leak repair and partial or full repiping in copper, PVC, PEX.
Heating repair and maintenance in Arvada
When the heat goes out on a cold night, the clock is the problem. Our heating repair covers furnaces and hydronic systems, and we handle boiler repair for both homes and commercial buildings.
A tune-up before the first hard freeze catches the small things that turn into midnight no-heat calls. Many of our customers roll annual maintenance into the Total Home Care Club, which adds priority scheduling and yearly inspections on the plumbing side too.
Residential and commercial service in Arvada
Nathan started out in commercial plumbing on large downtown Denver builds, and that capability is still in the company. We serve residential customers alongside commercial accounts including dental offices, restaurants, apartment complexes, and HOAs. One of our commercial customers has been with us since our first year in business.

Frequently asked questions about plumbing in Arvada, CO
Yes. Our regular hours are Monday through Sunday, 7am to 9pm, and we run 24/7 emergency service outside those hours for urgent situations. Burst pipes, gas leaks, no heat in freezing weather, and sewage backups all qualify. Call (720) 542-8153 any time and we'll get a technician moving.
It depends on the age of the unit, what failed, and what replacement would cost against the repair. We'll show you the actual condition of the tank and the failed component, give you both numbers, and tell you which one we'd choose. There's no pressure either way, and financing is available if replacement is the right call.
A single slow drain is usually a local clog you can try a plunger or a hand snake on first. If it comes back, or if more than one drain is slow at the same time, that points to something further down the line and it's worth having us look. Chemical drain cleaners are worth avoiding either way, since they damage older pipe.
Age and soil movement account for most of what we see. Clay-heavy soil shifts with seasonal moisture, which stresses joints and alignment on older laterals, and a lot of Arvada housing stock still has clay or cast iron pipe well past its expected service life. Warning signs include multiple slow drains, foul odors, and gurgling from drains.
Yes. We operate under Colorado Plumbing License #PC3045, and our technicians are licensed, certified, and insured. Nathan Padilla holds a Colorado Master Plumber license, verifiable through the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies, and the ICC National Standard Master Mechanical certification.

Why Arvada homeowners choose Prime Plumbing & Heating
Since 2012 we’ve completed an estimated 15,000 to 20,000 jobs across the Denver metro, and we’re running 3,000 to 4,000 a year now. That volume shows up in the parts customers actually notice: technicians who explain what they’re doing, pricing quoted before the wrench comes out, and a guarantee that means we come back if something isn’t right.
Nathan puts his reputation plainly. “I’m just a straight shooter. If I see it, I’m going to say it. And if I say I’m going to do something, I’m going to do it.”
We treat our customers like family, and the community work isn’t a logo on a sponsor page. Prime sponsors the Denver Walk to End Alzheimer’s at City Park every year, a cause that became personal after Nathan lost his mother to Alzheimer’s in 2021, and we support Stout Street Foundation, the Commerce City recovery program.
