128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric Stays Independent

128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric

128 Announces Local Independent Ownership For Good One question that Ryan Williams, President of 128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, and Electric, keeps getting is: “Did you sell?” and the answer is always In recent years, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and other home services have seen significant consolidation. In Greater Boston, 128 is one of the only home service companies that remain local, private, and independently-owned. This led Williams to seek out organizations that aren't just in business to sell, but to thrive long-term. He found the Tugboat Institute®, focusing on value, purpose, and people-driven businesses planning to remain independently-owned for 100+ years through their Certified Evergreen® status. 128 applied with the help of its entire team and received the honor of becoming Certified Evergreen® a year later. Watch 128's announcement here: https://youtu.be/g5rsiZW7B1k?si=KeR42U8H9GXnCJkH Does this impact customers? Customers want reliability and support for years down the road from their home service company, and choosing an independently-owned company can reduce uncertainties. Does this impact tradespeople? Ownership can influence company culture, communication, alignment, and priorities. With a labor shortage, it's important there are industry leaders willing to continually invest in education, which 128 is proud to offer its own school. Choose Local and Independent. 128 is proud to announce its continued local and independent ownership to bring stability and confidence to employees, customers, and communities for generations. Williams states that "128 answers to its customers and employees, not investors", and is not for sale. 128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, and Electric was founded in 1992 and is a top home service company in Eastern MA. 128 is known for its 5-star service, base+ membership, Finish Strong Friday®, and its Red Sox partnership.

Ephraim Curtis Middle School

On Sunday, September 20th, Sudbury will host our third inaugural <a href="https://kids.pmc.org/sudbury" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Sudbury PMC Kids Bike Ride</a>.&nbsp;Our ride is a 1-mile loop that riders may enjoy as long as they would like. The one mile course is entirely paved and loops through the beautiful residential neighborhoods of historic Sudbury. Parents are welcome to ride with their children but it is not required. If a parent chooses to accompany their child on the bike, we ask that they register as volunteers.&nbsp;
Many kids choose to ride the loop 3-6-12 or even 15 times. We encourage riders to participate as long as they would like. We will have special badges for riders who accomplish 5-8-12 and 15 miles, too! Please indicate at registration an estimate of your rider's total distance (this will help us for event organization).&nbsp;There is also an enclosed parking lot loop all starting from Curtis Middle School in Sudbury, MA. (Adults may opt to register as volunteers if they would like to ride with the kids). Before the ride there will be music and bike decorating; during the ride and following there will be an Ice-Cream Truck, Food Truck, Coffee Truck, huge bouncy castle, lawn games, music and more. All registered riders will get a free ice cream from our friends at Trombetta’s Farm Ice Cream. Registration takes place from 8:30am-9:45am. The ride is from 10:00am-11:30am, and food and games will be available from 10:00am - 1:00pm.
“The Pan-Mass Challenge is a Massachusetts-based bike-a-thon that raises more money for charity than any other single athletic fundraising event in the country. Always held the first weekend in August, the PMC raises funds for Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, a world leader in adult and pediatric cancer treatment and research. Each summer, thousands of riders and volunteers from 43 states and 12 countries participate in the PMC, all with a common goal: to find a cure for cancer.
100 percent of all rider-raised funds go directly to cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber and the Jimmy Fund. The PMC is Dana-Farber’s single largest supporter and is 62 percent of the Jimmy Fund’s annual revenue. Since 1980, the PMC has raised $972 million for Dana-Farber.”
The Sudbury PMC Kids Bike Ride empowers young participants to contribute to a meaningful cause while enjoying a fun activity. By offering multiple course options, every child will have the opportunity to participate and make a difference - regardless of age or ability. Each ride distance is carefully planned to be safe and enjoyable, with designated routes through historic Sudbury neighborhoods that are well-marked and closely monitored by volunteers. For the youngest participants, the tot lot loop provides a secure environment where kids can ride in a contained area - strollers, scooters, tricycles are ALL welcome!
Beyond the joy of bike riding, the Sudbury PMC Kids Bike Ride serves as a powerful educational experience for children, teaching them about the impact of collective efforts in fighting cancer. As they pedal for a purpose, they learn about empathy, community involvement, and the importance of supporting breakthroughs in treatment and cures at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. This event not only raises crucial funds for cancer research but also instills valuable life lessons in the young riders; collectively we all pedal towards a more cancer-free future. As with all PMC rides, every penny donated goes directly to cancer treatment and research at Dana-Farber.
Please join us on September 20th, 2026, for the <a href="https://kids.pmc.org/sudbury" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Sudbury PMC Kids Bike Ride</a>. We are also looking for volunteers of ALL ages to help us host an impactful and safe event. If you would prefer to contribute from a distance, you can donate to the ride by clicking the link below.
