History of Elgin Sheet Metal
For over 85 years, Elgin Sheet Metal Co. has been one of the Fox Valley’s most respected heating, air conditioning and ventilation contractors.
Elgin Sheet Metal Co. is a family owned and operated business whose storied history began when founder Paul F. Hudgens opened the doors in 1936.
In 1976, operation passed to his sons, Paul J. and Pat. Pat continues as President alongside the third generation – Paul’s daughter and son-in law, as well as other family members in key roles.

Quality Service At The Lowest Price
We also try to provide quality service at the lowest possible prices.
Because of the ever rising costs associated with training and keeping the best service technicians and installation crews, you may find that there are “cut-rate” contractors who offer service rates a few dollars per hour less than our service rates.
Remember, you never get something for nothing.
The customer always ends up paying for heavily “discounted” equipment or labor in some way, usually with one or a combination of the following:
- Poor system design and maintenance with resulting reduced system efficiency (high energy bills)
- Chronic breakdowns (expensive repairs)
- Premature system replacement.
