Commercial and Residential Mechanical Contractors and Market Leading ESOP

Leading the market by example.

A Trusted Source for HVAC, Plumbing, and Electrical Needs

HB Global, founded in 2017, is the parent company to 11 mechanical contractor companies across the United States.
Our industrial mechanical contractors deliver world class work to the industries driving our nation while our residential contractors serve our local neighborhoods and communities.

Whether it’s for a construction project, a renovation, or simply service and maintenance for your home or business, our industry leading specialty contractors provide market leading work.
Because each of our divisions have the support of HB Global, our customers get local experts with national resources when partnering with one of our brands.

We serve commercial clients through our HB Mechanical Group (9 divisions) and residential clients through HB Home Services (2 divisions).

Supporting the Team Working Hard on Our Projects

As a company that is structured as an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), the value that we create by serving our customers is shared back with our employees. Our whole team can become be employee owners, so partnering with one of our divisions means each of our team members benefits in a tangible and transparent way.

By growing the power of employee ownership, we are able to provide our team with an unmatched culture that supports our employees now and into retirement. This also makes us an ideal acquirer of other specialty contractor companies where the owners are looking to exit but leave their employees in good hands.

We’ve Got You Covered

Our unmatched culture powered by employee ownership fosters empowerment and accountability among each contractor on our team, which positions us to provide world class work each day.

With 20+ acquisitions in the last 10 years, we are growing our employee ownership base and serving a larger footprint to be able to better serve our clients.

Our Core Values

These four core values are the cornerstone of HB Global and are an integral part of defining and shaping our culture. These guiding principles set the expectations and lead the way not only for how we interact with each other but how we interact with our clients and our partners.

Trust

Trust is our most foundational core value.

When we live out this core value, we honor our commitments, assume positive intent in others, and do the right thing.

Team

Team is our daily mindset.

It reminds us to check our ego at the door, treat people with respect, and practice blameless problem solving.

Grit

Grit is what our employee owners identify most closely with through their passion and perseverance.

Grit demonstrates the importance of going the extra mile, having a sense of urgency, and not making excuses.

Growth

Growth is what we strive for at a company and individual level, both personally and professionally.

We aim to get better every day, keep an open mind, and commit to being lifelong learners.

What It Means to be an Employee Owned Company

When we succeed as an employee owned company, we all succeed together. Working at HB Global means that our employees can become employee owners in the company after one year and a minimum of 1,000 hours of work.

Our ownership is not just limited to the top levels of management. Our employee owners get to share in our short-term and long-term successes.

In the short-term, our employee owners receive annual bonuses as a percentage of their operating division’s profit.

For the long-term, our employee owners benefit from our ESOP program and 401(k) grant program. The contributions from HB Global are made with no contribution required on the part of our employee owners.

Employee ownership doesn’t just equate to monetary benefits. HB Global supports its employee owners through stretch assignments, education, and training programs for development purposes.

In Their Words

“I love HB McClure because we are a progressive company that’s always looking for new ideas and new ways to add value not only to our customers but to our employees.”

Adam Smith, Vice President of Commercial Service

“In an ESOP, every employee has the opportunity to own shares of the company. You become an actual owner, not just an employee. And, most importantly, you contribute directly to your own success.”

Mike Snyder, Safety Director

“In 2016 after a battle with a stress related illness and 40 years in the construction business I decided it was time to for the next stage in my life. The acquisition of Nash Plumbing & Mechanical by HB GLOBAL was a perfect fit for my needs to transition out of the business with what I required for retirement, and give my son and our 200 employees a better a better future and great benefits. This allowing the Nash legacy to continue for generations to come.”
