Founded in 1918 by Daniel Hayes, Hayes Mechanical Inc. has developed into a prominent full-service mechanical contractor based in Chicago, Illinois. Originally named Dan Hayes Boiler & Repair Co., the company began as a small boiler repair shop and has since expanded its offerings to include commercial and industrial HVAC, plumbing, and piping services, among others. Throughout its history, the company has maintained a strong commitment to integrity and quality, values instilled by its founder.
Hayes Mechanical boasts a rich history that reflects resilience and adaptability. During economic downturns such as the Great Depression, the company adapted by working with customers facing financial hardships, demonstrating a commitment to community and customer service. In the ensuing decades, under the leadership of John T. Mooney, who took over from Hayes, the company diversified its services, adding capabilities in air conditioning, boiler maintenance, and fluid engineering.
By the 1990s, Hayes Mechanical had firmly established itself, moving to a new facility to accommodate its growing operations. As the company continued to expand, it entered joint ventures and formed strategic alliances, thereby enhancing its services and market presence across multiple states.
In the new millennium, Hayes Mechanical underwent significant transitions, including a sale to Consolidated Engineering and subsequent reacquisition by the Mooney/Hayes family. This period also witnessed the opening of several regional offices, extending their reach and capabilities.
Today, Hayes Mechanical employs skilled tradespeople across ten states, affirming its reputation as a trusted union contractor in the industry. The company emphasizes customer satisfaction and safety, striving to provide exceptional service in the mechanical contracting sector. With over a century of experience, Hayes Mechanical remains dedicated to meeting the evolving needs of its clients while upholding its foundational values.
