The Trade
Commercial HVAC can't close without sheet metal — ductwork is the system that makes mechanical mechanical. We staff sheet metal journeymen trained on SMACNA HVAC Duct Construction Standards, with documented experience on commercial rectangular duct, round spiral, fabric duct, and industrial-grade duct systems. Shop fabrication capability paired with field install makes for a tighter schedule than a pure install-only crew.

Commercial ductwork fabrication, layout, hanging, and connection on new construction and retrofit HVAC scopes.
Heavy-gauge industrial ductwork, dust collection, and process-ventilation systems on manufacturing and industrial projects.
Shop-based layout and fabrication of ductwork, fittings, and specialty assemblies. Pre-fab capability to accelerate field install.
Crew coordination, layout verification, and install sign-off on commercial HVAC ductwork scopes.
Support under journeyman supervision — staging, basic fabrication, and install assist.

Join the crew — Sheet MetalQuestions
Both. Most commercial ductwork is shop-fabricated from our or your partner's shop; field install runs faster with pre-fab. On-site fabrication is available for custom runs, modifications, and repair scope — ask specifically on the request.
Yes. Industrial sheet metal is a specialty subset — heavy-gauge materials, dust collection systems, fume hoods, and process-exhaust ventilation. Common scope on manufacturing and food-processing expansions in Oklahoma.
Fabric duct (DuctSox, KE Fibertec) is a specialty distribution method used on warehouses, gyms, and industrial spaces. Journeymen with fabric-duct install experience are a filter on our roster — ask when the project calls for it.
The Standard
Licensed where the law requires it. OSHA-screened on every shift. W-2 employed — no misclassification risk. Staffed across the OK / TX corridor.
