Hussung Mechanical Contractors, Inc. was founded in 1966 by brothers, George and Henry Hussung. A recent graduate engineer, George’s son, David, joined the company in 1967 and assumed estimating and project management responsibilities. In the early years, HMC was successfully executing projects such as the Elizabethtown High School and the Oxmoor and Bashford Manor Malls. These early projects ranged anywhere from $5,000 to well over $1,000,000.
In 1986, HMC officially initiated the service side of the business, HMC Service Company, focusing on preventive maintenance and ongoing customer support. “We felt it was important to be able to service our customer’s building once a project was complete. We wanted to continue our partnerships with our customers based on the trust we earned during the construction process,” states David L. Hussung.
Over the past forty-four years, HMC has experienced tremendous growth and now employs well over 340 individuals, including David’s son, David Clark Hussung. HMC’s growth has allowed them to undertake projects exceeding $30,000,000, including Norton Brownsboro Hospital, Barret Traditional Middle School, Ft. Knox IBCT Barracks and UofL Biomedical Research Facility.
