Westside Mechanical Celebrates 50 Years in Business

Since 1970, Naperville-based Westside Mechanical Group has been a leader in mechanical services in the Chicagoland area. The full-service mechanical contractor’s capabilities and expertise span a wide-range of markets and industries, including healthcare, data centers, education, hospitality, high end residences and more.

Despite all the changes and challenges of 2020, this year marked an important milestone for the team at Westside Mechanical: the celebration of 50 successful years in business. Although the technology they’ve relied on has changed through the years, their mission of delivering the best product and service to their customers has not.

“It’s a two-way street with our customers; we hold them to a high standard, and they hold us to a high standard,” said Jeff Lukitsh, Westside Mechanical president. “There are some large general contractors who bring us in and say our whole team makes everything easy for them. There’s never been an issue we can’t take care of.”

This longtime SMACNA Greater Chicago member has lent their quality workmanship to innovative projects all throughout the city; most recently a 60,000-square-foot addition to Chicago’s Steppenwolf Theater, a six-floor buildout for RSM and a new medical office for the DuPage Medical Group. Many of their clients have done business with Westside Mechanical for more than 10 years — a testament to their industry knowledge and unwavering commitment to superior customer service.

As the company looks to the future, Lukitsh says he’s less interested in rapid growth and instead focuses on maintaining and further developing the solid company culture that is at the core of Westside Mechanical. “The young people we have in place are the future of our company when the more seasoned professionals retire,” he said. “Our immediate and long-term goals lie in training the younger crowd and supporting them so they have the tools they need to be successful throughout their career at Westside Mechanical.”
