Company History

The business began as a small trade crew focused on plumbing for Anchorage homes. Over a decade, it expanded services to include septic work and certified fire protection maintenance. Growth came from steady referrals, repeat commercial contracts, and investment in cold-weather equipment suited to Alaskan conditions.

Core and Main kept a local focus while adding a modest parts inventory and vehicle fleet to reach distant properties in the Mat-Su Valley and rural routes when needed.

Leadership

The company is led by owner Marcus Holt, an Alaska resident with nearly 20 years in plumbing and fire systems. Marcus worked in both field service and inspection roles before starting the firm. The leadership team participates in local trade groups and volunteers for community safety events.

Field supervisors are based in Anchorage year-round. That local presence helps with fast dispatch and knowledge of seasonal challenges like frost heave and thaw cycles that affect pipes and septic fields.
