Your plumbing is the lifeblood of your home, and when a pipe bursts, a sewer line backs up, or a water heater quits on a cold night, every minute counts. We know how stressful that is, and we’re here to stop the damage fast.
Prime Plumbing & Heating is the emergency plumbing repair service Denver homeowners and property managers count on across Denver, Arvada, Aurora, Broomfield, Commerce City, Lakewood, Thornton, and Westminster.
Founded in 2012 by Nathan Padilla, a Colorado Master Plumber with decades in the Denver trades, Prime is a family-owned company that treats every customer like a neighbor, because here in Denver, that’s exactly what you’re.
“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.”, Nathan Padilla, Owner, Colorado Master Plumber License #PC3045
Not every plumbing problem needs an immediate call. It’s an emergency when water is actively spreading, sewage is backing up, you’ve lost hot water in a cold snap, or a sump pump has quit during a storm.
If that’s you, shut off the nearest water valve, or the main shut-off if you can’t pinpoint it, stay clear of any standing water near electrical, and call us. We’ll walk you through the rest and get a technician on the way.
Before we arrive, you’ll get a text with your technician’s name and arrival time, so the person at your door is the one you were expecting.
We send a certified technician your way right away, find the problem fast, and make a lasting repair instead of a temporary patch. Our trucks carry the parts most emergency repairs need, so most jobs are done in a single visit. No drama, no hassle.

We stop the leak, replace the failed section, and check the surrounding line for the stress fractures that often follow a freeze. Older galvanized supply lines, uninsulated crawlspaces, and exposed hose bibs are the usual Denver failure points. For active or hidden leaks, see our leak repair page.

A single slow sink can wait. A main line pushing sewage into a basement floor drain can't. When more than one fixture backs up at once, that's usually a main-line problem with a real contamination risk, so our clogged drain emergency response uses camera inspection and powered equipment to clear the line instead of pushing the problem further down. There's more at our drain cleaning page.

No hot water in the middle of a Denver January isn't a wait-until-Monday situation. We handle tank failures, pilot and ignition issues, leaking T&P valves, and tankless error codes, and we carry the parts to get most units running the same day. Our water heater repair team covers both repair and replacement, residential and commercial.

For backups, breaks, or root intrusion in the main line, our sewer line repair team handles both excavation and trenchless options to get the line flowing again.

Spring melt and summer storms fill basements fast when a sump pump quits. If you hear the float clicking with no water moving, or the pump running constantly with the pit still full, call right away. Our sump pump repair team replaces failed pumps, installs battery backups, and checks the discharge line.

Restaurants, dental offices, retail spaces, and multi-tenant buildings can't afford to close over a single failed line. Our commercial plumbing team responds same-day with the parts and licensing to get you back up and running.
If a large amount of water threatens your walls, flooring, furniture, or decor, you've a situation that needs help right away. Sewage backups, no hot water in winter, and burst supply lines also count. Small drips or a slightly running toilet usually don't.
Locate the leak and shut off the closest water source, then contain what you can with towels or buckets and move belongings out of the way. After that, call a Denver plumber who can respond quickly.

It usually runs through the yard and enters the house through the concrete foundation. Most homes have a main shut-off outside and a secondary shut-off inside. Before turning off the main valve, try the valve closest to the leak or clogged drain first.
