First String Plumbing, Heating & Cooling started as a local, family business, and that mindset still guides how we treat customers and each other today. For more than four decades, our technicians have provided high-quality plumbing and HVAC service with transparent pricing and clear communication. We hold a high standard for the work we do and the way we show up in people’s homes and businesses. When you join our team, you’re stepping into a place where reputation matters, and every person plays a real part in protecting it.
Working here means you’re part of a team that takes the work seriously, but not always itself. We like to have fun, and that shows up in the way our technicians interact with customers and with each other. You’ll see people helping on tough jobs, sharing tips, and celebrating wins, large and small. Customers feel that energy at the door, and so do the people who work here every day.
Our mission is simple to say and big to live out: create opportunities that change the lives of employees and the communities we serve. That means:
At First String, we have a clear community goal: donate 1 million meals to feed children in the areas we serve. Every service call and every project that goes well helps move that number forward. You’re not only fixing a furnace or repairing a leak, you’re also supporting a mission that reaches beyond the driveway.
Technicians and office team members have chances to get involved in community-focused efforts and events when they come up. It feels good to know the work you do each day connects to something bigger than the job in front of you.
Most days start with a plan. You’ll review your schedule, look over the jobs for the day, and head out with the tools and information you need. From there, you might be diagnosing a furnace issue in the morning, clearing a drain after lunch, and working on an AC or boiler call in the afternoon.
You’ll talk directly with customers, explain what’s going on, and offer clear options. You’ll also stay in touch with our office team, so dispatch, parts, and timing stay on track. At the end of the day, you’ll know exactly what you accomplished and who you helped.
Behind every technician, there’s a team that wants you to succeed. Dispatch works to keep routes manageable and logical. Leadership is accessible, not distant, and open to hearing what would make your workday smoother. When you have questions about a job, a part, or a process, you’re not left on an island trying to figure it out alone.
You don’t have to know everything on day one. What matters most is a strong work ethic and a willingness to learn. You’ll receive training on:
As you grow, you can move into roles with more responsibility, like lead technician, trainer, or supervisor. We pay attention to performance, attitude, and reliability when we look for people to step into those positions.
You’ll be part of a group that actually enjoys working together. Technicians share real-world tips, help each other problem-solve, and take pride in representing the company. There are opportunities for recognition when you go above and beyond. You’ll hear “thank you” from both customers and leadership, and that recognition goes a long way on long days.
Not every technician will thrive in every company, and that’s okay. People who do well here usually:
If you see yourself in that list, there’s a good chance you’ll feel at home here.
