Frequently Asked
Questions |
| Q1:
What is a mechanical contractor? |
| A1: When most
people think of a mechanical contractor they think of someone who supplies
and |
| installs heating and
air conditioning equipment. Actually, a mechanical contractor does offer |
| heating and air conditioning
systems, but we also offer much more. T.E. Smith & Son offers our |
| customers complete estimating,
design, sales, service, fabrication and installation of all types of |
| plumbing, heating, air
conditioning and ventilation systems for commercial, industrial and |
| institutional clients.
We also offer complete preventative maintenance service, custom remote
|
| monitoring systems and
computer actuated sheet metal and duct fabrication. |

| Q2:
Why does T.E. Smith & Son only do commercial and industrial work
and not residential? |
| A2: Although we did do
residential in the past, we realized that there was a real need for
a |
| quality mechanical contractor
on the Delmarva Peninsula who specialized in commercial and |
| industrial applications.
We also realized that to be the best in our field we had to devote ourselves |
| exclusively to that field.
There are several fine contractors in our area that specialize in residential |
| plumbing, heating and
air conditioning. As with commercial work, the residential contractor
must |
| devote his attentions
to the residential mechanical field. |

Son, Inc. has been serving the Delmarva Peninsula for over 60 years.

| Q4:
Where do you work? How far will you travel? |
| A4: Our company is based
in Salisbury, Maryland which is the hub of the Delmarva Peninsula that |
| includes Delaware, Maryland
and Virginia. We work in a radius of approximately 75 miles from |
| our base in Salisbury.
We will work in areas that exceed 75 miles, but the logistics of that
work |
| would require special
