Over 50 Years of Dedication

Franks Mechanical is successful because of the extraordinary dedication of each of our employees — our extended family. In our 57-year history, we count no less than 35 employees with 10 or more years of service, 12 of those with over 30 years at Franks Mechanical.

Our founders, Frank Lucchese and Norman Gotteiner built Franks to last. Our project size and visibility grew and in 1971 Franks Plumbing, Inc. became Franks Mechanical Contractors, Inc. Subdivisions, nursing homes, hotels and apartment buildings were our markets in the '70s and '80s. In the '90s we experienced a smooth transition to a new generation of leadership.

This coincided with the condominium and loft conversion market heating up. We finished the decade with completion of our most prominent project — the 1998-99 conversion of Randolph Place in Chicago. It had the distinction of being the largest loft conversion in the United States with 332 condominiums.

Today, under the leadership of Craig Campeglia and Sherry Gotteiner Rundell, Franks Mechanical Contractors, Inc. continues to thrive in our 16,000 square foot custom designed facility in Elk Grove Village. Large commercial projects, ranging from multi-family housing, hotels and offices continue to be our area of expertise.

Our founding principles: Provide the highest quality service and exceed the customer's expectations in every aspect of our business — are as true today as they were 57 years ago. We know this formula will continue for generations to come.
