Apex's Gas Guru — Plumber, Gas Specialist, and General Contractor in One
We've been serving Apex homeowners through Eric's gas-company referral network for years. If someone pointed you our way and you're just now finding us online — you're in the right place.
We're Pro Maxx One Plumbing, and we're a little different from the other names you'll see when you search for a plumber in Apex NC. Eric, our founder, spent 30 years on the utility side of the gas industry before going independent — which means when we say "Gas Guru," that's not a slogan. It's a job description nobody else in this market can claim. Add plumbing, HVAC, and general contracting licenses under one family-owned roof, and you've got a contractor who can handle the full scope of your project without handing pieces of it off to someone else.
- Triple-licensed: Plumbing + HVAC + General Contracting
- Certified Rinnai technician (manufacturer-certified, not just installer-level)
- 30 years of utility-side gas experience
- Voted Nextdoor Neighborhood Favorite
- Family-owned — you'll talk to us directly, not a dispatcher
Gas Work Is Where We Separate from the Field
Apex has no shortage of plumbers. What it has very few of is contractors who genuinely specialize in gas. Eric's background is utility-side gas — the kind of experience that comes from working inside the distribution system, not just connecting appliances on the customer end. That depth matters when you're adding a gas line for an outdoor kitchen, converting from propane to natural gas, or trying to figure out why your gas logs won't stay lit. Our gas services cover everything from new line installation and appliance hookups to leak detection and propane services.
Tankless Water Heaters — and the Certification to Back It Up
Apex's newer subdivisions — Bella Casa, Scotts Mill, Olive Chapel — are full of homes that are either already on tankless or overdue to make the switch. We're a certified Rinnai technician, which means we install, service, and repair Rinnai tankless units at the manufacturer level. That's a different credential than a plumber who "also does Rinnai." If you're replacing an aging tank unit or adding a tankless system to a remodel, we handle the gas line, the venting, and the unit itself — no coordination required.
One Contractor for the Whole Project
The most common frustration we hear from Apex homeowners planning a bathroom or kitchen remodel is the coordination problem — one contractor for demo, one for plumbing, one for tile, and nobody who owns the whole thing. Because we hold a general contracting license alongside our plumbing and gas credentials, we can self-perform the full scope. That means one contract, one point of contact, and no finger-pointing between trades when something needs to be sorted out. If you're planning a bathroom remodel or a kitchen upgrade, we're worth a conversation before you start lining up subs.

Common Questions from Apex Homeowners
Is Pro Maxx One actually local to Apex, or are they based somewhere else?
We're based in the Clayton area and serve Apex as part of our regular service area. Eric's gas-company referral network has been sending us Apex work for years — this page exists so those referrals can actually find us when they search.What makes Pro Maxx One different from other plumbers in Apex NC?
The main difference is the gas background.

We're also triple-licensed (plumbing, HVAC, and general contracting), which means we can handle full project scope without subcontracting the pieces out.Do you install tankless water heaters in Apex?
Yes, and we're a certified Rinnai technician — manufacturer-certified, not just installer-level. We handle the full installation including gas line work and venting, which matters in homes where the existing line needs to be upsized for a tankless unit.Can you handle a full bathroom remodel, or just the plumbing portion?
We can handle the full remodel. Our general contracting license covers the complete scope — demo, plumbing, gas, tile, fixtures. You get one contractor who owns the whole project rather than a plumber who hands off to someone else for everything else.How do I get a quote for gas line work in Apex?
The fastest way is to give us a call. Gas line work varies enough by project — line length, pressure requirements, appliance type — that a quick conversation gets you to an accurate number faster than a form. We're straightforward about pricing and won't leave you guessing.
