How did Interstate Mechanical get its name?
Back in the early ’80s before IMC was officially a company, the project manager for our very first job was traveling back and forth to Greeneville to try to negotiate a deal for the project. When he reported back to his boss he said, “Gosh, it seems like I have done nothing but drive up and down the interstate this whole time! Why don’t we just call ourselves Interstate Mechanical?” And the name stuck.

What is DST and do you offer it as a service?
DST stands for Discovery Sound Technology. DST is the HVAC service industry’s first advanced diagnostic, cloud-based delivery platform.

Testimonials

Bunny Oakes | President, TIS Insurance Services, Inc.

I have had the pleasure to work with Interstate Mechanical Contractors for close to 30 years and can assure you they are the Best of the Best. I believe there are 3 priorities for a successful contractor: Safety, Quality of work and Production. Their commitment to safety and their employees is unquestioned. They do great quality of work and stand behind their work and finally they get the job done. It is an extreme pleasure to work with a company as Professional as IMC.

We have had the pleasure and privilege of handling the performance bonding requirements of Interstate for over 25 years and through two generations of ownership. During that time Interstate has performed admirably and completed work treating all parties with fairness and respect and rendering the owner a quality product. As a grantor of credit in the form of bonding we can ask for no more.
