Nathan Padilla, Colorado Master Plumber and ICC Master Mechanical certified
When something breaks at home, you want a team that picks up, shows up, and gets it right the first time. Prime Plumbing & Heating is a family-owned, Colorado Master Plumber-licensed company that’s served Broomfield homeowners and businesses since 2012. From leaking pipes and water heater failures to furnace, boiler, and AC service, we handle it all under one roof.
When you call, you reach a local contractor with a Denver-rooted team, not a national franchise routing you through a call center. That’s the difference: upfront pricing before any work begins, and named technicians who treat your home like family.
Prime was built by Nathan Padilla, a lifelong Denver native who’s been in the trades since 1998. His credentials aren’t a marketing line, they’re verifiable:
We started in 2012 as a two-person operation. Today we run 3,000 to 4,000 jobs a year, and both commercial & residential customers who first hired us back then still book with us now. Because Nathan’s name is on the company, accountability is personal in a way it can’t be at a corporate franchise. If something isn’t right, we make it right.
Being family-owned without an oversaturated lead funnel is part of why we can show up when you need us, not a week out. That’s no drama, no hassle, just honest work by people who care about getting it right.
We start by assessing the situation to find the root cause, then build a plan that fits it. Whether it’s a clogged sink drain or a failing main sewer line, we’re ready for it.
Broomfield has grown from farmland into a key part of the Front Range tech corridor, blending older historic homes with newer subdivisions. That mix means plumbing and HVAC needs vary block to block, and we tailor the work to the home in front of us.
From single-family homes in Broadlands to commercial buildings near Interlocken, we cover what Broomfield property owners count on:
One team, one phone call, no juggling contractors.
Our plumbers handle any issue on your property, from stubborn blockages and leaking pipes to failing fixtures. We bring modern tools and proven methods to both residential and commercial properties, and we work fast to keep a pressing problem from becoming serious damage. For urgent breaks and leaks, see our emergency plumbing page.
Furnaces, boilers, and heat pumps all need attention before Colorado’s cold sets in. Our certified HVAC technicians handle heating repair, boiler repair, and the routine maintenance that keeps a system running all season.
Those temperature swings aren’t gentle, and a cold snap can land as late as October or linger into spring. Staying ahead of furnace and boiler repairs is how Broomfield homes avoid the worst-timed breakdowns, while keeping energy bills down and equipment lasting longer.
We service every common model of water heater, including conventional,tankless, and hybrid units, from routine checks on seals and valves to urgent repairs on the tank itself. Knowing when to repair versus replace is one of the most common questions we get.
Most tank water heaters last roughly 8 to 12 years, per general industry guidance. It’s usually worth a closer look when you notice:
Hard water on the Front Range can shorten that lifespan as mineral scale builds inside the tank. If you’re ready for an upgrade, a tankless unit can be a smart long-term move. Per U.S. Department of Energy data cited in our own published guidance, homes using 41 gallons or less of hot water a day can see tankless units run 24% to 34% more efficiently than traditional tanks, and high-use homes around 86 gallons a day see 8% to 14% gains. We’ll help you pick the right model and install it to last.
Our cooling work covers central air conditioning, including tune-ups, AC repair, and new installations. Regular maintenance improves efficiency, extends equipment life, and helps lower energy bills by catching breakdowns before they happen.
An AC failure in July isn’t something you can wait a week to fix. Our same-day availability is the direct answer to that urgency.
Slow sinks, gurgling tubs, and recurring backups are some of the most common calls we take in Broomfield. Older neighborhoods can see tree root intrusion in sewer lines, while newer builds tend to deal with kitchen-line grease buildup and stubborn bathroom clogs. For tougher blockages, our hydro jetting service clears your pipes with high-pressure water. It’s more thorough than a standard snake, and it removes:
For routine clogs and ongoing upkeep, our drain cleaning service handles the day-to-day issues across Broomfield. When the source isn’t obvious, camera inspection lets us look inside the line, pinpoint the exact cause, and keep repairs targeted with no unnecessary digging.
Hard water is a recurring factor in our area, gradually narrowing pipes and leaving scale on fixtures, so we look at the whole picture while we’re on site, not just the immediate clog.
Same-day service is frequently available, often within one to two hours of your call. You'll know the price before we start, with no surprise bills.
Most tank water heaters last roughly 8 to 12 years. If yours is in that range and you're seeing leaks at the base, discolored water, fluctuating temperatures, or repeated repairs, replacement is often the smarter long-term move. Call us at (720) 542-8153 and we'll inspect the unit and walk you through the decision honestly.
Yes. We serve the full Broomfield area across zip codes 80020, 80021, 80023, and 80038, including Anthem, Broadlands, Interlocken, Wildgrass, and McKay Lake.
Yes. Nathan Padilla holds a Colorado Master Plumber license (Colorado Plumbing License #PC3045) earned in 2007 and an ICC Master Mechanical certification earned in 2013. That means one licensed in-house team for both plumbing and HVAC, not separate trades handed off to each other.
Repiping becomes necessary when pipes corrode, degrade, or suffer frequent leaks. A professional inspection will tell you whether it's time. We provide full repiping services in Broomfield to improve the efficiency and longevity of your home's plumbing.
Hydro jetting clears blockages and cleans sewer lines with high-pressure water, removing debris, tree roots, and built-up sediment. Our skilled technicians use it to keep your pipes clean and free-flowing, prevent future clogs, and protect the health of your system.
For minor clogs, a plunger or a plumber's snake can sometimes do the trick. If those don't work, call us or book online and we'll bring the right tools to clear it cleanly without damaging the pipe.
Our reputation in Broomfield is built on named technicians, among them Fernando, Gabriel, Keaton, and Trevor, who show up, explain the work clearly, and stand behind it. Every job is backed by our 100% satisfaction guaranteed promise and Nathan’s personal accountability.
If we’ve helped your Broomfield home or business, we’d be grateful if you’d share your experience on Google.
We work across all of Broomfield, and our trucks know these streets and the quirks each area tends to produce:
Broomfield’s landmarks help orient our service area, from FlatIron Crossing and Broomfield Commons to the Broomfield Depot Museum and Brunner Farmhouse. Whether you’re near the shopping corridor or out by the open-space trails, you’re inside our regular route.
Broomfield is one of eight dedicated Denver metro service areas we cover. The others are Denver (our headquarters), Arvada, Aurora, Commerce City, Lakewood, Thornton, and Westminster. For commercial clients with sites across the metro, that network means one licensed contractor handling plumbing and HVAC at every location, with consistent technicians and consistent pricing.
Nathan is a lifelong Denver native, and the company’s roots here go beyond service calls. We sponsor the Denver Walk to End Alzheimer’s at City Park every year and support the Stout Street Foundation in Commerce City. Those aren’t marketing relationships; they reflect where Nathan is from and the community he’s spent his career in.
For Broomfield residents and businesses who’d rather work with a local, family-owned team than a corporate brand with rotating technicians, that’s the whole point. When you call us, you reach people rooted right here, not a call center.
Call us and we’ll take care of the rest. You get personalized customer care and quality residential and commercial service across Broomfield, built on the principles Nathan founded the company on: quality, integrity, and value.

For ongoing peace of mind, our Total Home Care Club membership covers regular maintenance on the systems that matter most.
