Batchelor's Residential Service, LLC, rooted in Mobile, Alabama, began in 1967 when father and son duo Bruce and Larry Batchelor founded Batchelor’s Heating and Air Conditioning. The company initially specialized in residential HVAC services but quickly expanded, incorporating commercial HVAC and plumbing solutions by the 1970s. A name change in 1980 to Batchelor's Mechanical Contractors marked the addition of new partners, reflecting the company's growth trajectory. In the mid-1980s, as part of the Service America franchise, they adopted the name Batchelor’s Service America, only to revert back to Batchelor’s Service in the 1990s to sharpen their focus on residential offerings in the Mobile and Baldwin County regions. Throughout its evolution, the company has remained committed to delivering outstanding service with integrity.
In 2002, Edward Leatherbury, a dedicated employee, purchased Batchelor's Service and maintained its tradition of excellence. Following Leatherbury's passing in 2016, the company transitioned to a trust aimed at benefiting his three children, and the previous management team returned to steer the business. Batchelor's Service prides itself on its professional and friendly technicians who are trained to tackle any HVAC or plumbing challenge, ensuring high standards of service and customer satisfaction.
Remaining true to its heritage, Batchelor’s Service emphasizes the importance of creating comfortable living environments through reliable and efficient heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and plumbing systems. The company is known for its slogan “Service Worth Remembering,” which encapsulates its commitment to excellence. Batchelor's Service continues to serve a broad range of communities around Mobile, enhancing the quality of life for families and businesses in the area.
