AC Repair & HVAC Service in Hillsborough County

From downtown Tampa out to Plant City, Hillsborough covers just about every kind of house Florida builds. We work the whole county, and have for over twenty years.

What Hillsborough County homes do to HVAC systems

Hillsborough is the widest spread of housing stock we deal with. Block homes in Seminole Heights and Ybor City that were retrofitted for central air decades after they were built, subdivision construction through Brandon and Riverview from the 1990s boom, and newer zoned two-story builds out toward Fish Hawk and Lithia. That range matters because the right system for a 1950s bungalow with a single return is not the right system for a two-story house with four zones, and sizing on square footage alone gets both wrong. Inland Hillsborough also runs hotter than the coast through summer, without the sea breeze that takes the edge off in Pinellas.

Mechanical permits in Hillsborough County are issued either by the municipality or by the county, depending on where the property sits. Tampa, Temple Terrace and Plant City run their own building departments; everywhere unincorporated goes through Hillsborough County. We pull the permit and meet the inspector either way, so you are not chasing it.

The permit is pulled under Florida certified mechanical contractor license CAC1820870, held by Robert Moran, who has run R.M. Mechanical since 2001. You can verify that license yourself with the state before you let anyone touch your system, and you should, for any contractor. More about the company is on our about page.
