Haldeman Mechanical is proud to have served Manheim and the surrounding communities for three generations. During that time, our commitment to our customers and to quality work has never changed.
In 1939, Frank L. Haldeman began repairing hand operated well pumps, installing automatic jet pumps, and installing “modern” indoor plumbing and heating systems. In 1949, he established F.L. Haldeman & Sons Plumbing, Heating and Cooling with his three sons, Lloyd, Ed, and Jay, and son-in-law, John Heisey. The company incorporated in 1965 and continued until 1989, when the last of the Haldeman family left the corporation. The company was then purchased by an employee.

In 1982, Mark Haldeman, Lloyd’s son and Frank’s grandson, opened Mark Haldeman Mechanical Service Company, a plumbing, heating, cooling and water conditioning business. The company incorporated in 1995 and became Haldeman Mechanical, Inc.
In 2001, Haldeman Mechanical purchased F.L. Haldeman and Sons, Inc. The company now operates from the original F.L. Haldeman and Sons location at 1148 Old Line Road in Manheim.
In the spring of 2008, Haldeman Mechanical continued to expand its operations through the acquisition of Steve Splain Heating and Air Conditioning of Columbia. Steve now serves as Service Manager with the company.

We take pride in our work and are committed to your complete satisfaction with every job.
