The Ascent Story: Rising Above Through Faith and Service

Where Friendship Laid the Foundation

Not many businesses start with a childhood friendship, but that's exactly how Ascent Plumbing Air Conditioning and Heating began. Derek Lenz and Travis McCarthy grew up together in Cincinnati, Ohio, where they both started their journeys as apprentices - Derek in HVAC, Travis in plumbing. Their paths stayed parallel even as they moved across the country to Yucaipa, California, each mastering their craft along the way.

Faith Meets Expertise

Both leaders at Truth Church Yucaipa, Derek and Travis saw something missing in local home services. After much prayer, they knew it was time to bring their vision to life. That's how Ascent Plumbing Air Conditioning and Heating was born - built on friendship, powered by faith, driven by service. Derek now leads the HVAC division, while Travis oversees plumbing operations, each bringing their specialized knowledge to serve their community.
