The team at Appleton Campbell is proud to announce that 2026 marks 50 years of servicing homeowners across Northern Virginia. Our latest milestone isn’t about looking back for nostalgia’s sake. It’s about recognizing what steady, reliable service has meant for families who want year-round comfort and safety.
For many local families, Appleton Campbell has been the first call they make when plumbing, heating, air conditioning, or electrical systems need attention. We built our Northern Virginia home service company around high-quality service, where our customers know what to expect and that the work is always handled the way it should be.
Reaching 50 years in the home services industry doesn’t come from making big promises or clever marketing. It comes from doing the work the right way, year after year. We arrive on time, explain what’s happening, and clarify pricing upfront. We also treat our customers’ homes like our own and with the respect they deserve.
Appleton Campbell got its start in 1976 with one service truck and a straightforward goal: to do honest plumbing and heating work that people could count on. As a family operation from the beginning, we built our company around hands-on work and personal responsibility. Those early habits mattered, and we still stick to the basics of clear communication, fair treatment, and following through on what we say.
Today, Appleton Campbell works in homes throughout Fauquier, Culpeper, Fairfax, Loudoun, Madison, Orange, Prince William, Rappahannock, and Stafford counties. Our skilled team includes licensed professionals across plumbing, HVAC, and electrical work, backed by the tools and training needed to do the job properly. Homeowners enjoy a one-stop solution for all of their home system needs.
When work impacts the safety, comfort, and functionality of your home, credentials matter. That’s why Appleton Campbell makes sure our team receives the latest training, licenses, and certifications to do our best work. We hold a Virginia Class A contractor license and maintain full insurance coverage. Our dedication to preparation makes sure our work is completed correctly, safely, and in accordance with current requirements to fix your plumbing, electrical, and heating and cooling needs for the long term.
Trust isn’t built through a single visit. It develops over time through clear communication, honest recommendations, and follow-through. Local homeowners continue to call Appleton Campbell because they know what to expect. We make sure problems are diagnosed accurately, options are explained clearly, and decisions are left with the homeowner.
Reliable service starts with the people doing the work. Appleton Campbell supports its technicians through training, stable employment, and a work environment built on respect and teamwork. Because our technicians aren’t paid on commission, customer conversations are about solving the problem instead of selling unnecessary upgrades.
Plumbing, heating, air conditioning, and electrical systems are closely connected, especially in older homes. Issues in one area can directly affect others. Choosing a single team that understands how these systems work together helps prevent piecemeal repairs that don’t address the full picture.
Being a local company means more than providing services. Appleton Campbell is committed to our community and participates in local events, local organizations, and causes throughout Northern Virginia. These are the same communities where employees live, raise families, and stay connected.
Home systems have changed significantly over the past five decades. Technology has advanced, systems have become more complex than ever, and homeowner expectations have increased. Appleton Campbell is committed to keeping pace through continued training, improved safety practices, and thoughtful adoption of new tools and technology.
Serving our community for the next 50 years isn’t about growth for growth’s sake. It’s about continuing to serve homeowners as well as their homes, systems, and needs as they evolve. That’s why we invest in people, adopt new technology responsibly, and maintain the same steady approach that built trust in the first place. Growth only matters if reliability grows with it.
Fifty years of service happen when you service one house at a time. It also depends on our community welcoming us into their homes when something needs attention. We’re grateful for the trust you’ve given us during every visit. We look forward to serving you for another 50 years—and beyond.
