YOU Matter

The Brandt Companies were created under the leadership of Barry Moore and Mark Zilbermann in an ever-expanding quest to provide our clients with on-time, in-budget construction service, complete commissioning assistance, and long-term facilities maintenance. We expanded into HVAC service and full-service MEP operations. In the 2010s, Brandt established the industrial division focusing directly on the unique needs of industrial clients. Expanding on the growing industrial market, Brandt acquired Hilbig Services in 2018. In 2022, Brandt was acquired by Southland Industries. This acquisition aligned with Brandt's goal to become a nationally focused company that can better serve our customers, increase industry influence, and create additional opportunities for employees.

With offices in major Texas cities and over $700 million in annual revenues, Brandt has established itself as the largest mechanical, electrical, and plumbing contractor in the state. With in-house capabilities that start with design and construction and end in service, Brandt works to provide solutions and service to meet changing needs.
