About Us
Atlanta HVAC, Plumbing, & Electrical | Estes Services
Founding Estes
For over 73 years, Estes Services has
been Atlanta's #1 service, sales, repair, and installation company. So, when
you work with us—and what sets us apart from the other top HVAC companies in
Atlanta—you work with a family business.
Learn about how we've grown over the
years by starting from the very beginning of our history. In fact, Estes Services
was founded in 1949 by N.B. (Nap) Estes, shortly after he served his time in the
Army.
The Estes Family
Nap had a loving wife and two very
small children when he started the business installing floor furnaces on the
south side of metro Atlanta. In fact, his only son, Tommy, was born in January
of 1949 and has literally grown up in the business, often helping his dad
install ductwork and systems long before he could even drive.
Nap would do whatever it took to satisfy the customer because he knew that, without the customer, he would have no business. As you can see, our strong values of providing excellent customer service were formed very early on and it reflects to date through our company testimonials and reviews.
In fact, our family business has grown in volume steadily
every year for the past 73 plus years!
Estes Family Legacy
Promises and Handshakes
The business's original location was
in the founder's house located in what used to be known as Mountain View, a
small community within a couple of miles from the former Atlanta-Hartsfield
Airport.

Recognizing New Markets
In the late '50s and
into the '60s, the concept of adding central air conditioning to residential
homes became the industry craze, and Mr. Estes had the foresight to move away
from the residential new construction side of the business and concentrate on
residential replacements and add-on air conditioning.
Overcoming Challenges & Remaining Family-Owned

Leaving a Legacy
Today, our company has doubled in size since the '60s and has been featured in many nationally recognized trade publications. In addition, Estes Services has received many awards, including the coveted "Residential Excellence Award" given to the top contractor in America by the Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA) and the "Best Contractor to Work For in the Southeast Award" given by the Air Conditioning and Refrigeration News magazine (ACHR News).
Tommy Estes is currently the President of our company and has been since his dad stepped down in 1986. One thing that sets us apart has always been the quality of our people and the structure of our organization. Tommy's son, Brian, has worked his way up through the ranks and is poised to take over the overall leadership of Estes Services. Along with Vice-President John Waldorf, he handles most of the day-to-day operations and direction of our highly qualified staff of over 150 people, many of whom have been with the company for many years. Today, Tommy, Brian, and John can always be reached by phone, mail, or email and are prompt to handle any issue.
Our number one goal is to ensure your
satisfaction at the end of the day!
