About Us

Southern MEP is a licensed mechanical, electrical, and plumbing contracting firm serving the Southeast for over 30 years.

Founded in 1993, Southern MEP has grown from a small mechanical contracting firm into a one-stop contracting solution — from engineering, design, and 3D modeling to planned maintenance, HVAC installation, piping, and more. We strive to be the preferred source for design, installation, and mechanical, electrical, and plumbing contracting services in the Southeast. 


We are registered as an unlimited licensed MEP contractor in South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, and Virginia.
