One record from the Washington ownership directory. Ownership status is not a quality rating, and this page is a permanent link to the evidence behind one claim — how the labels work.

Ownership pathSpringer Plumbing → Apex Service Partners → Alpine Investors

Springer publishes its Washington plumbing license on its own site, and that license is registered to UBI 604833538 — the Apex Service Partners legal entity that also holds BelRed, Gene Johnson and Fox. The company states it has served Olympia and Thurston County since 1989 and makes no ownership statement of its own. The earlier Springer Plumbing LLC entity (UBI 601758603, Tumwater and Tenino) no longer holds an active license under that name. The Apollo minority investment in Apex announced in May 2026 applies here as to the other Apex brands.

High confidence means: Registry-level proof, or an acquisition announcement plus a current portfolio listing. It grades the evidence behind the ownership call, not the business.

The company prints this license as SPRINPA741UC; the L&I open dataset renders the same license with an asterisk in place of one character (SPRINP*741UC). No SPRINPA741UC record exists in the dataset, so these are the same credential rather than two.
