COMPANY PROFILE - MR MECHANICAL SERVICES LTD

The team at MR Mechanical Services Ltd.

A FAMILY-RUN COMPANY WITH A PERSONAL STAKE IN EVERY PROJECT, MR MECHANICAL SERVICES LTD IS THRIVING AS A COMMERCIAL CONTRACTOR SPECIALISING IN SCHOOL PROJECTS… Taking pride in a job done right

‘Getting it right first time’ has propelled MR Mechanical Services Ltd from a small-scale domestic installer into a thriving commercial business. A plumbing, heating and ventilation contractor with an extensive portfolio of clients in the commercial, healthcare and education sectors, the family firm was founded in 2015 by Mark Rocks. Mark has more than 25 years of experience in the industry, with the firm’s roots dating back to 2006 when he decided to start his own business. At the time a qualified plumber working in Dundalk, he made the move with his apprentice Kevin McFerran. Kevy would become the firm’s longest-serving employee, ultimately progressing to his current role as operations manager.

Mark said, “It was just the two of us to start with but, within six months, we started adding plumbers and the business has grown steadily since then.” Domestic installations were the bread and butter for the fledgling firm in its early years, followed by an expansion into renewables such as air-source heat pumps and solar PV. The team boosted its knowledge in the growing sector and made the most of government incentives available at that time. “There was a gap in the market,” said Mark, “and then our move into commercial work was the next logical step to allow the business to continue to grow.” The establishment of MR Mechanical Services coincided with the move into larger commercial projects,

which span schools, hospitals, apartment blocks, offices, restaurants and hotels. The firm now employs 16 full- time members of staff including management and qualified foremen and journey men, placing an emphasis on the training and progression of its team. Up to 20 sub-contractors provide support on bigger projects. “We are a family-run business who focus on our staff’s wellbeing,” said Mark. “Our hope is the care we show to our staff can be translated to the works, with care taken on each job.” The business is a registered with Construction Line and Gas Safe, and carries Safe T Cert Health & Safety Certification.
