My husband ran into some trouble installing a new kitchen faucet. We called Advantage and Christian came out same day and took care of the problem. Very nice people to deal with! Highly recommend
You will not find a better company than Advantage Plumbing and a better plumber than Matt! I was in over my head installing a new faucet and they were all so great to deal with! From the scheduling to the constant feedback and then the actual service call…perfect! Trust me on this….they care!
Installed a new hot water heater. They were right on time, were very efficient and got the job done quickly. Very happy with their work.

Yes. Proctor is about 8 road miles from our shop at 1808 Tower Ave in Superior, so it is one of the closest towns we cover. We handle repairs, replacements and new installations here.
Mostly natural gas. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2024 5-year estimates, about 75 percent of Proctor homes heat with natural gas, 11 percent with propane and 10 percent with electricity. The median year built is 1968.
Yes. We repair and replace central AC and install cold-climate heat pumps, which heat and cool with the same equipment.
Often, especially paired with the gas furnace most homes here already have. The heat pump handles cooling in summer and much of the heating in spring and fall, and the furnace covers the coldest days. We price it for your house before you decide.

No. Proctor is its own city, incorporated in 1894, with just over 3,000 residents on Thompson Hill above Duluth, according to the City of Proctor. Its iron ore sorting yard has fed trains downhill to the Duluth ore docks for more than 100 years.
Long. NOAA’s 1991-2020 normals for Duluth International Airport average about 9,115 heating degree days a year (a measure of how much heating a place needs), a January low around 2°F, and about 38 nights a year below zero. A heating system here works hard, so a yearly checkup is worth it.
It can. NOAA’s 1991-2020 normals for Duluth International Airport average about 90 inches of snow a year, and a high-efficiency furnace vented through a side wall will lock out if a drift covers the pipes. Keep the intake and exhaust clear after a storm, and call us if the furnace keeps locking out.
