Founded in 1987, IHM Mechanical has grown from a small local contractor into one of British Columbia’s trusted providers of plumbing, electrical, and specialty water-system services. Based in Burnaby and serving the Greater Vancouver area, we’ve built lasting relationships with supermarket chains, retail groups, and construction partners who rely on our expertise, consistency, and attention to detail.
What began as a small misting-system business evolved into a full-service mechanical contractor—reflecting our commitment to doing things the right way, with the right people, and continually expanding to meet our customers’ needs.
History & Leadership
IHM’s current identity was shaped by Dean Gabriel and his late partner, John DeVita, whose commitment to quality workmanship continues to influence how we operate today. What began as a small mechanical team evolved through hard work, technical expertise, and long-standing customer relationships—principles that still drive us.
Today, IHM is part of The Arcticom Group, a network of mechanical and refrigeration companies across North America. This partnership allows us to support a wider range of needs, connecting our plumbing, electrical, and controls capabilities with TAG’s broader refrigeration and HVAC expertise.
Our Focus
Our focus remains on commercial and light industrial mechanical systems, with specialized expertise in supermarket, food processing, and retail environments. We combine design, installation, and service capabilities to deliver high-performing, long-lasting systems that meet the unique demands of these facilities.
With teams in British Columbia and a growing presence in Alberta, IHM Mechanical continues to expand its footprint – bringing dependable local service and the support of a North American network to every project.
