Meet McCorvey Sheet Metal Works
McCorvey Sheet Metal Works, L.P. is a leading detailer, fabricator, and installer of HVAC sheet metal ductwork. Specializing in the fabrication and installation of sheet metal systems, the company’s commercial project experience includes arenas, airports, hospitals, hotels, and more. Since its humble beginnings in 1925, McCorvey has grown to encompass six companies with more than 2,400 employees across the country. Even with expansive growth, McCorvey has preserved its legacy of craftsmanship, innovation, and family values.
Built on Family Values
Family has been the cornerstone of McCorvey's identity since its early days as a small sheet metal shop. As the company has grown into a multi-faceted industrial leader, its commitment to treating employees as extended family has remained unwavering.
"We've been raised with people who've been here for 35-40 years. I've known them my entire life. When I was running around the hallways as a kid, they were patient with me, and now they're still working here today. It's amazing.” said Charlie McCorvey, Executive Vice President of McCorvey Sheet Metal, Duct Direct, and McCorvey Industrial Fabrication.
“We're obsessed with having that same longevity with our newer employees, hoping they'll be here for 50 years too. That longevity, treating people like family, creating a culture where they want to be here for the rest of their lives—we crave that. It's a really big deal to us," said McCorvey.
Enduring Financial Relationships
As a family-owned and operated business, McCorvey places high value on people and relationships. This is one of the reasons McCorvey partnered with Stellar Bank for financial services, which extends beyond traditional banking. Stellar Bank’s decades-long partnership and commitment to understanding the intricacies of McCorvey’s operations has provided crucial financial support that helps the company meet its goals and foster long-term success.
“Stellar Bank is key to our flexibility and ease of operations,” said Kristal McCorvey Crites, Chief Financial Officer of McCorvey. “Our bankers are wonderful people who really care about their customers. They want to make sure we’re taken care of. They act timely. And they’re available 24/7. The level of service we get from them is second to none.”
Supporting Sustained Growth
As the construction industry evolves, McCorvey evolves with it by investing in cutting-edge technologies and expanding its service offerings. Throughout the years, Stellar Bank has supported McCorvey through access to capital, equipment financing, cash flow management, strategic financial planning, and more. When McCorvey needs to secure increased lines of credit to purchase new buildings, add on to buildings, acquire land, or purchase a fleet of vehicles, Stellar Bank helps find the best way to do that.
“Stellar Bank is our partner,” said McCorvey Crites. “We’re more than just a customer and a banker—we’re friends. We’re both looking for mutually beneficial outcomes for both of us to get the best deal possible. To be successful in business, it’s crucial to have a partnership with your bank, and that’s what we have.”
Today, Stellar Bank even plays a pivotal role in the company’s acquisition strategy.
“Without Stellar Bank, it would have been extremely difficult to acquire these companies over the last 10 to 15 years as we’ve grown our business,” said Tony McCorvey, Jr., Executive Vice President of McCorvey. “Having this relationship allowed us to buy these companies, instantly implement our accounting practices and take over their financial systems so vendors and subcontractors never miss a beat.”
Commitment to Community
McCorvey’s success goes beyond completed projects—it’s also reflected by the strength of its relationships. As a family-focused business, McCorvey believes in creating meaningful connections with customers, employees, and the greater community.
“I'm always proud of all our food drives, blood drives, and Christmas toy drives that we do. But we’re also committed to education though scholarships and our apprenticeship program, which has a huge impact on our industry by developing more sheet metal workers, pipe fitters, plumbers, and service technicians,” said McCorvey Jr.
Approaching its centennial anniversary, McCorvey’s commitment to quality, integrity, and relationships helps ensure its continued growth and leadership in the sheet metal industry.
