Company History

The John F. Gallagher Co. Grows on Innovation and Tradition

Founded over forty years ago by Michael's father, John F. Gallagher, the firm began as a commerical plumbing contractor doing business in the Cleveland area. When his father retired in 1997, Michael Gallagher (left) and his three younger brothers navigated the planning, transition, and restructuring of the family business. Now as president of the firm, Michael is positioning the John F. Gallagher Company for more partnering with construction businesses, while adding innovation and growth.

Michael comments, "We sell innovation. When we partner with a company, we bring an engineering expertise to the table. We're problem solvers."

The range of services offered by the John F. Gallagher Company sets them apart. They offer the complete package of plumbing, HVAC, fire protection services, process piping, new construction and service work, that, together, creates an on-going, trusting relationship with clients.

"We do our own excavation and site utilities. We also service and handle emergencies. We provide mechanical services from the curb to rooftop units and everything in-between. We're a single source of shopping solution to problems."

Projects include new and existing facilites for institutional, commercial, industrial, design-build, medical and school accounts. Full service mechanical contracting services include underground utility locating, excavation of site utilities, and pre-fabricating capabilities using the innovative T-Drill and Pro-Press systems. Service work includes emergency service and troubleshooting.
