50-Years of Capability You Can Count On!
Founded in 1973 by Harry Hemphill, American Boiler & Mechanical has grown from our humble beginnings in a small office and shop in Fenton, MO to a 25,000 square foot headquarters on a 2-acre expanse in the historic St. Louis neighborhood of “The Hill.”
With our growth has come expansion. First, with branch offices in Kansas City, MO in 1988; second, a Salina, KS location a decade later; and in the years that followed, locations in Wichita, KS, Joplin, MO, Des Moines, IA and Dallas, TX. This expansion has allowed us to grow our geographical footprint and capabilities to extend throughout the Midwest and beyond.
Now on our third generation, American Boiler & Mechanical currently maintains a fleet of 85-plus services vehicles, mobile welders, and all the tools necessary to perform any job from re-tubing a boiler onsite to piping-in new equipment.
While boilers will always be our specialty, as our name implies, our capabilities and expertise have grown over the years to include all mechanical aspects of manufacturing and industrial plant facilities – from basic plant maintenance to complete HVAC, boiler, and process piping replacements and expansions.
We’re proud of our history and look forward to serving our customers with the very best in boiler and mechanical services for the next half century and beyond!
