A mechanical contractor oversees various processes within a project that deals with mechanical systems, including installation, maintenance, and repair projects. Mechanical contractors are in charge of anything with mechanical parts, including the production of items and installation of mechanical and automated systems. Once installed, a mechanical contractor can also take care of system maintenance and repairs.

When you think about the core elements of what a mechanical contractor does, it is to problem solve and redesign mechanical systems that aren’t doing their jobs properly or efficiently.
