Just a straightforward handshake and a plan to get it done right.
Back in 1983, when Dwayne Klarenbeek started Midwestern Mechanical out of his converted chicken coop in Larchwood, Iowa, things were pretty simple. One location, one phone number, one team dedicated to doing quality work and treating people right.
Fast forward 40+ years, and we’ve grown to four locations across South Dakota and Iowa. We’ve got over 330 employees, we’re 100% employee-owned, and we’ve built the state’s second-largest apprenticeship program. But here’s the thing—as we grew, our websites grew too. Four locations meant four separate websites, and frankly, that was making things more complicated than they needed to be.
So we did what we always do when something isn’t working right—we fixed it. We’ve brought all four of our location websites together into one place. Now, whether you need service in Sioux Falls, Rapid City, Spencer, or Sioux City, you can find everything you need in one spot.
But that’s not all that’s changing. We’ve also given ourselves a fresh new look with an updated logo and brand image that better reflects who we are today. You’ll start seeing our trucks getting a facelift too—same reliable maroon you’ve come to recognize, but with a cleaner, more modern design that shows we’re always looking ahead while staying true to our roots.
No more guessing which website has the information you’re looking for. No more trying to remember four different phone numbers. Just one straightforward site where you can get a quote, find your local team, or call us for an emergency—24/7, just like always.
Getting help from us just got a whole lot easier. Need a quote? There’s a simple form right on the site. Emergency at 2 AM? The emergency contact button is front and center. Want to see what services we offer in your area? Pick your location and we’ll show you exactly what we can do.
Each location still has its own page because, let’s be honest, what we do in Rapid City might be a little different from what we handle in Sioux City. But now you can easily see the full picture of who we are and what we’re all about, no matter which team you’re working with.
This isn’t just about making our website better or updating our look—it’s about staying true to what Dwayne started all those years ago. Keep things simple. Take care of people. Do quality work. Whether you’re calling about a leaky faucet or planning a million-dollar commercial project, you should be able to reach us without jumping through hoops.
Our new brand image reflects the growth we’ve experienced and the expertise we’ve built over four decades, but the heart of who we are hasn’t changed. We’re still the same team that shows up when you need us. Still the same folks who believe a handshake means something. Still the same company that’s been serving our communities for over four decades. We’ve just made it easier to find us and get the help you need.
Here’s something new we’re excited about—we’ll be keeping the site updated with what’s happening across all our locations. Check back regularly for promotions that might be running in your area, company news, and our apprentice of the month features. We’re proud of our people and the work they do, and we want to share those stories with you.
Whether it’s celebrating one of our apprentices winning a national competition or announcing a new service we’re offering, you’ll find it all in one place now.
At the end of the day, this is really about making sure we’re as easy to work with as possible. From that first chicken coop to four thriving locations, we’ve always been about serving our customers and treating them like family. Now we’ve just made it simpler to connect with us and given ourselves a look that matches the quality company we’ve become.
You’ll be seeing our refreshed brand around town—on our trucks, our uniforms, our signage, and of course, on our new website. It’s all part of our commitment to continuous improvement while never forgetting the values that got us here.
So take a look around the new site. Get familiar with how everything works. Bookmark the pages you’ll need. And remember—whether it’s an everyday repair or a middle-of-the-night emergency, we’re here and ready to help.
Ready to see what we can do for you? Check out your local location page, request a quote, or give us a call. We’re here 24/7, just like we’ve been since 1983.
