For the past 8 years in business, we’ve helped homeowners and businesses with everything from installing and repairing sinks, faucets, toilets, and garbage disposals to handling water heaters, sump pumps, gas lines, and plumbing drains. We also service and install central air systems, thermostats, and window or wall AC units.
With a crew of 12 professionals, we’re large enough to respond quickly, yet small enough to care about every detail. If you’re looking for trustworthy, straightforward service and long-lasting work, reach out and let’s schedule your service or estimate.

I needed someone to complete the plumbinginstallation for my new vanity. I began the work but realized it was beyond my skill level, so I decided to hire professionals. Building and Mechanical Services took on the job, and after experiencing their work and professionalism, I would definitely hire them again. If you're hesitant about hiring this company, don't be—I plan to use them again for my next project.

I was looking for someone to help me move my radiator so I could complete a renovation of the room, and was turned away by several specialists until I came across this company. The team at the front desk were quick to respond and schedule me. They had room in their schedule to help me out just when I needed it. The men who came out to do the work were so kind and took the time to explain everything to me. I felt comfortable asking them questions, and when I needed them to come back the same day to help with something else, they came to help me before they went home that evening. Overall super happy with the service!

In an industry that seems to not be transparent about pricing, I was very happy to receive a quote from them before making any decision. They were also super quick to respond to my needed repair. Highly recommend and will be using them in the future :)

My pro (Gene) arrived well within the window of time provided to assess the condition of my boiler. He was courteous, professional, and (most importantly) well-versed about my heating system, which is quite old. Building and Mechanical Services made a wonderful first impression, and I will absolutely call them again whenever the need arises.

Very professional, reasonable price (I'd received insane estimates double and even quadruple their estimate from 3 other companies) tons of years of experience. I had them back out after I was concerned about something and they did some additional work for my peace of mind, no extra charge. I would definitely use them again if I ever have a need for this type of work. Once they got the repair and duct and return installation done the water restoration company came the next day for the rebuild. I can finally rest easy that my hvac/ac is running properly and not causing water and mold to build up in the basement living space.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
We believe in straightforward, upfront pricing with zero hidden fees, providing clear estimates before any work begins so you always know what to expect. To help make major HVAC, plumbing, or mechanical repairs and upgrades manageable, we partner with Wisetack to offer flexible financing options. Our rates reflect licensed trade expertise, high-quality materials, and reliable solutions designed to last, rather than quick temporary fixes.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Our process begins with an initial phone or messaging consultation to review your specific heating, cooling, or plumbing needs. We then set up an appointment using our scheduling system, sending automated notifications and clear arrival windows so you stay informed every step of the way. Once on-site, our technician assesses the system, outlines recommended diagnostic or replacement options, performs the approved work efficiently, and conducts a full site walk-through. After the visit is complete, our office will send a detailed invoice that includes work scope and cost for each service completed.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Our team holds active state licenses in HVAC and plumbing trades, ensuring every project complies strictly with local building codes and safety regulations. Our technicians meet with our local supply houses for continuous training on high-efficiency equipment and updated safety standards. On the operational side, our office utilizes administrative management tools to keep client communication, dispatching, and record-keeping seamless from start to finish.
