Before our 12 trades, 1,200 employees, countless valued customers, and four locations, there was one man in a single room pipe shop on the Northern Minnesota Iron Range. The year was 1905 and Joseph Egan was ready to put his dreams into motion.
While his new business thrived, the country and the world continued to be unsettled. Change was coming, war was on the horizon, building materials were short, and enlisting was the expectation. The small business would eventually have to wait. After ebbing and flowing for decades between serving our country and raising a family, the dream of running a business full-time was restored. And in 1945, with $3,000, Joseph and his sons Bill and Costney (eventually, younger brother Jerry as well) opened their doors in the Twin Cities – Egan and Sons Plumbing and Heating Company was officially founded.
2025 marked the 80th year as a privately owned and operated leader in multi-trades contracting and system integration. Continued growth in Minnesota and North Carolina is paving the way for new opportunities in established and emerging markets, giving our diverse portfolio new avenues to deliver on promises kept for our customers, employees, and partners.
Diverse partnerships and a diverse workforce are the foundation for what’s to come. Looking ahead, we are committing time, talent, and financial support toward organizations, events, and causes aligned with Egan’s purpose, goals, and values. Uniquely positioned to integrate new technologies and practices, Egan is ready to meet the demand for green initiatives and to help project owners prepare for where the industry is headed.
