North Central was founded in 1966 as North Central Plumbing & Heating. The company has undergone three ownership transitions; first from father to son, then to Chuck Braun in 2008, and finally to Duncan Lea in 2013, who had moved to the Bulkley Valley two years earlier looking to invest in the community. Like Chuck Braun before him, Duncan strives to meet the demands of a customer first philosophy and has worked hard to ensure the company is well situated to that end.
With each transition the company continues to grow and diversify its service and installation portfolio. Since Duncan took over the reins, he has moved into the Commercial Controls field ensuring the company's continued growth and preparedness for what lies ahead. North Central now offers complete Plumbing, HVAC, Refrigeration, A-fitting, Controls and Hearth service and installation. With a staff of 10 fully trained service technicians, we are a well-rounded option for those seeking a qualified service provider able to serve a customer base that stretches from Bulkley-Nechako to Kitimat-Stikine.
