Yesterday, our Shafer team came together for our Q3 Quarterly Meeting to reflect on our progress, celebrate accomplishments, and look ahead to what's next!

These meetings are about more than reviewing goals and company updates. They're an opportunity to recognize the hard work happening across every department, strengthen our connections, and make sure we're all moving forward together.

As Shafer continues to grow, one thing remains the same: our commitment to taking care of people like family, supporting one another, and creating meaningful careers in the trades.

We're grateful for every team member who plays a part in making Shafer what it is today. Here's to finishing the year strong and continuing to grow together!

One Team. 100 Strong.

When cooling tower issues threaten building operations, every detail matters.

At Methodist Metropolitan Professional Building, our Shafer Mechanical team stepped in to replace a cooling tower motor, perform precision laser alignment, and investigate a second tower cell where a locked-up gearbox was discovered.

Our technicians successfully restored operation to one of the two cooling tower cells, brought the central plant back online, and proactively monitored chiller performance until the building's heat load was recovered.

The result? Restored cooling operations, an identified solution for the remaining tower cell, and minimal disruption to the facility.

That's the difference experienced troubleshooting and a team committed to doing the job right can make.

When multiple plumbing systems need attention, the last thing a facility manager needs is multiple service visits to get the job done.

For one national facilities client, Shafer Mechanical coordinated the replacement of failed commercial water treatment equipment, RO system service, and an important code compliance improvement during a single visit.

The result? A completed scope, verified system performance, and no additional return visit required for the planned work.

See how thoughtful coordination and attention to detail helped simplify this commercial plumbing project for the facility team: https://shafermechanical.com/case-study-commercial-water-treatment-system-replacement/

Your chiller and cooling tower made it through another Austin summer. But what did peak cooling season take out of them?

Post-summer is an important time for building owners and facility managers to evaluate equipment performance, address developing issues, and plan repairs or capital improvements before the next period of heavy demand.

From recurring alarms and efficiency losses to mechanical wear and aging equipment, what you find now can help prevent unexpected downtime and give your team more control over next year’s maintenance budget.

Our latest blog explains what to evaluate after peak cooling season and how to start planning ahead.

Today, we pause to remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and honor the first responders, service members, and everyday people who demonstrated extraordinary courage and compassion.

At Shafer, we believe in taking care of people like family and treating others with respect. On this day of remembrance, we’re reminded of the strength that comes from communities supporting one another, especially during the most difficult moments.

We honor those we lost, those who served, and the families who carry their memories forward.
