Meet Mike Henderson, Master Plumber
Mike Henderson founded Apex Plumbing in 2008 after 5 years apprenticing under Denver’s top plumbing contractors. Today he holds Colorado Master Plumber License #MP-2847 — one of the highest certifications in the state — and personally oversees or performs every job Apex Plumbing takes on.
With 18 years of hands-on plumbing experience, Mike has handled everything from basic drain clogs in Capitol Hill condos to full sewer line replacements in Montbello’s aging infrastructure. He knows Denver’s plumbing quirks: the altitude effects on water heater efficiency, the clay soil shifts that crack sewer lines in Park Hill, the century-old galvanized pipes still running under LoDo townhouses.
Mike’s philosophy is simple: treat every customer’s home like your own, quote honestly, and fix it right the first time. That approach has earned Apex Plumbing 523 five-star reviews and an A+ BBB rating held since 2010.
Our Story: Denver’s Plumber Since 2008
Apex Plumbing started as a one-truck operation out of Brighton Blvd in 2008. Mike had a simple goal: build the plumbing company he always wished existed — one that showed up on time, explained the problem in plain language, and charged what it quoted.
Word spread fast through Capitol Hill and LoDo. By 2012, Apex had grown to a team of four. By 2018, ten. Today the Apex team handles hundreds of service calls per month across all Denver neighborhoods, from emergency burst pipes in Highlands to bathroom remodels in Cherry Creek to sewer camera inspections in Stapleton.
