Hardy Corporation was founded in Birmingham, Alabama in 1943 by Frank L. Hardy as a mechanical contracting company serving the emerging commercial air conditioning market. Since then we have grown to become a nationally - recognized open shop HVAC, plumbing, refrigeration, and full service contractor serving commercial and industrial customers throughout the Southeast, Mid-Atlantic, and Midwest. We believe our large base of repeat clients is due to a successful record of installing quality systems on-time and within budget. We are typically engaged in approximately 50 projects and employ 300 to 350 personnel. This large volume allows us the flexibility to staff projects on short notice.
