D.C. Goodman & SONS

What began as a single plumbing shop has grown into a full-service contractor specializing in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and fire protection. Headquartered in Huntingdon, the company employs over 40 skilled trades personnel and technicians, serving commercial, healthcare, educational, and industrial clients including W R Grace Chemical Plant, JLG Industries, Containment Solutions, and Juniata College.

ABOUT OUR SERVICE DEPARTMENT

Our service team is the face of the company every day. This is commercial-scale work on rooftop units, boilers, chillers, VAV systems, and backflow prevention, not residential service calls.

What you should know about our team

You’ll work hands-on in the field while training and guiding other technicians, serve as the go-between for techs and department heads, and field some customer calls and facility manager communication. We value people who lead by example, teach patiently, and keep communication open in both directions.
