Home » Athens

We’ve spent plenty of time navigating the rolling landscape of Western Marathon County, and we know that Athens homes require systems as rugged as the local terrain. Whether we are heading down Highway 97 or parked near the fairgrounds during a busy community weekend, our crew is familiar with the specific infrastructure of this village. You’ve likely seen our white trucks cruising past the local parks or in the driveways of neighbors who need a hand with a stubborn boiler or a basement backup. We don’t just work here; we understand that life in “The World’s Fair Village” means preparing for heavy snow loads and the high humidity that rolls across the fields in mid-July.

If your home’s climate or water systems are acting up, invite our team over to get things back on track.

Plumbing Services

Athens residents often deal with the realities of rural water table fluctuations. Local geographic data suggests the area’s soil composition can lead to significant runoff during the spring thaw, making a reliable drainage strategy vital. We provide:

  • Heavy-duty sump pumps to ensure your basement stays dry when the snow starts to melt.
  • Professional drain cleaning and snaking to clear out years of buildup.
  • Modern water heater replacement and tankless options for a never-ending hot water supply.
  • Precise leak detection and frozen pipe repair to protect your home’s foundation.
  • Specialized water softening system installation to treat the high mineral content common in Marathon County.
  • Kitchen and utility solutions, including garbage disposal fixes and safe gas lines for your appliances.
  • Robust commercial plumbing for local agricultural and retail businesses.

Reach out to our plumbers to keep your pipes clear and your water flowing properly.

Air Conditioning

When the summer heat settles over the Athens valley, a high-efficiency cooling system is the difference between a restless night and a comfortable home. We’ve been a regular sight in neighborhoods across the village, keeping systems running when the humidity peaks.

  • Fast AC repair and maintenance for all major equipment brands.
  • Quality central AC installation designed to keep every room in your house crisp.
  • Seasonal AC maintenance to extend the lifespan of your unit and lower energy bills.
  • Specialized ductless AC service and mini split setups for homes that lack traditional ductwork.

Contact our cooling team to schedule an inspection before the next heat wave.

  • Emergency furnace repair and system diagnostics to restore warmth quickly.
  • Versatile heat pump technology for efficient, year-round climate control.
  • Professional boiler repair and radiant heating installation for that consistent, cozy warmth.
  • Modern thermostat installation to give you more precision over your monthly heating costs.

Don’t get caught in a cold snap. Get your heater checked by our local pros today.

I had a boiler system installed by Southport and everyone I interacted with was fantastic! After several quotes I selected them because I thought the company had a lot of integrity. I first got a quote from Caleb who was most professional, walking me through all the options they had for me and being very reasonable on the pricing. They scheduled the installation within a week and, on that day, the technicians Ryan and Jacob were excellent and very hard workers. I appreciated that they were very careful inside the house, putting shoe protectors while upstairs and overall being very respectful. They stayed until the job was done and my heat was restored. I would highly recommend Southport if you need a new boiler installation or and work or maintenance on your boiler, home heat, or water heating system.

Thank you for sending Andrew Wenk to test our furnace. He could answer our questions clearly and tested all the important components and measured various pressures, temperatures, speeds, and other technical factors. He gave us 3 estimates for replacing parts that are needed due to age of the furnace. Andrew was pleasant and respectful to us.

Southport’s Technician , Phil Lloyd, is a true asset to his organization! My wife, Karyn and I have had many contractors come through our house over the years and I would put Southport at the very top of our service partners. They are knowledgeable, reasonable, and most importantly trustworthy. Phil Lloyd took the time to share, in layman’s terms, the root cause of our problem and a remedy that would bring our system back up and running; peace of mind to our family. I would highly recommend Southport, and would give Phil Lloyd a 10 out of 10 related to Service, quality, and most important trust. Southport is fair on cost,I plan on partnering with Southport for many years to come. Jim Sheehan
