Lee's Plumbing, established in 2000 and based in Hyde Park, Utah, has built a commendable reputation for its exceptional customer service and reliability. Owner Lee Draper will continue to head the company, ensuring the continuity of operations under the well-known Lee's Plumbing brand. This smooth transition is expected to benefit both employees and customers, as the existing workforce will remain intact.

Such shared values are crucial for a seamless integration and maintaining high standards in customer service.

Lee Draper highlighted the importance of this partnership, stating, “It was very important to me to find a company to partner with that has a lot to offer to our most important asset, our people. AHG provides competitive benefits programs, the ability to be a shareholder, and greater opportunities for advancement for all employees.” This assurance of job security and opportunities for growth is likely to boost morale and productivity among Lee's Plumbing employees.

The Any Hour Group has continued to push forward in its mission to be the partner of choice in the trades sector, focusing on high-quality customer service and development of top talent in the industry. With over 25 locations across 10 states, AHG has established itself as one of the largest and fastest-growing residential service providers in the Midwest and Mountain West.

As AHG looks to the future, this acquisition of Lee's Plumbing is set to enable further growth and expansion, combining resources and expertise to serve customers better. This strategic move fits well within AHG’s broader vision to enhance its service offerings and improve customer experience, adding depth to its already comprehensive portfolio.
