Company Background
Our Family is All About Yours.
There's something special about being a family-run business. Especially one like ours, now approaching 60 years of continuous service.
Over the years, we've looked after each other. And that goes for the countless employees who have helped us serve your indoor comfort needs over the years. Today, we appreciate more than ever the opportunity to serve you. While we started as a plumbing and heating company, today, we offer more services, state-of-the-art products, brand new ways to help cut your energy costs, and more.
In the meantime, we'd like to share with you just a little bit about the Mathis family's history. By knowing where we've come from, we hope you'll better understand who we are today, and what we bring to the table.
Mission Statement
To serve and maintain all our customers for life by meeting their needs. We'll perform great quality plumbing, heating and cooling work while being personable and building relationships.
Our History
Founded in 1952 by Ralph H. Mathis, Mathis Plumbing & Heating Company, Inc. is a family owned business. Ralph and his wife, Betsy, started the business from their garage with one truck, great ambition, and a commitment to customer service that has only grown since. While providing heating and plumbing services and handling all the behind-the-scenes administrative work, our founding "father and mother" managed to raise three children.
Ralph and Betsy are now enjoying their retirement years while sons Jimmy and Wayne run the show. The Mathis brothers have both worked full-time in all aspects of the business since Jimmy graduated from Lander College in 1972 and Wayne from The Citadel in 1975. Ralph and Betsy's daughter, Jean Ann, who handles many of our office duties, is the friendly voice that usually answers your calls and provides you with direct assistance or puts you in direct contact with the appropriate department or person.
Mathis Teams up With Benjamin's Heating & Cooling
In 2005, Mathis acquired Benjamin's Heating and Cooling, another strong family owned business that opened its doors in 1946. With the addition of Benjamin's, we're better equipped to handle all your heating and cooling needs than ever.
Overall, the Mathis organization continues to evolve to meet your growing and diverse needs. Today, for example, we design, install, repair, and service residential, commercial, and industrial/institutional plumbing and HVAC Systems. We also are well experienced in designing and installing new and replacement boilers.
