Burns Mechanical
Burns Mechanical is a premier mechanical services company providing solutions for the most prominent construction projects in the greater Philadelphia region. The National Center for the Middle Market had the pleasure of speaking with Burns Mechanical’s President, Dan Kerr, about the company’s rich history, recent structural changes, and re-focused vision.
How It Started
Burns Mechanical was founded by a steamfitter by trade in 1998, who had established a solid reputation from years of management experience in the local market. His goal was to do large-scale construction projects in the Philadelphia region and the company saw early success. Within five years, Burns Mechanical played a significant role in major expansions of Philadelphia’s Children’s Hospital and the building of the first Comcast tower, the tallest building in the city at the time.
