Throughout our history, we have grown our footprint, our services, and our people, always innovating to meet new demands. Yet our commitment and guiding principles remain at the forefront, unchanged since we began in 1934.
Harder Mechanical is built on the belief that there’s always a better way. A smarter way. A safer way. And it’s our job to find it. Since our founding in 1934, it’s never been enough to go with the status quo. We draw on our historic knowledge and our innovative ideas to solve complex problems and improve every step of the process. The best solutions come from experts working together to rise to the challenge. They come from Harder.
Through five generations, the Harder family has protected our workers as they would their own family. We look out for one another and make sure every single person gets home safely at the end of the day. Without that, nothing else matters. That’s why we have one of the best safety records in the industry. And why it’s is our top priority on every site, from our offices to our most complicated projects. That’s what makes Harder safer.
Harder has thrived through 90 years of growth and change by always adapting to what’s next. As we grew from local plumbers to large mechanical contractors, we have maintained our private, family ownership and our family feel. We’re big enough to win the most exciting projects and small enough to know everybody. It’s an unbeatable combination. And at Harder, we’re all on the same winning team.

Because Harder always makes it better.
