HALL CELEBRATES 50 YEARS

HALL Contracting Corporation began October 13, 1954 in Louisville, KY. Previously known as Hall Trenching Co. the new name told the world that “trenching” was no longer all we did for our customers. Since that time, HALL has grown into one of the most respected and most diversified contractors in the southeast.

Hall Contracting’s reputation continues to grow!
 
Hall Contracting Corporation and Diamond Power International recently signed a formal agreement to create a more synergistic relationship between the two companies to further develop the market for turnkey installation and maintenance of soot blowers and other boiler cleaning equipment manufactured by Diamond Power.

Diamond Power International is a worldwide leader in the development of boiler cleaning and ash handling technology and equipment with offices in 29 countries.  The company started as Diamond Power Specialty in 1903.  Babcock & Wilcox bought controlling interest in 1922 and in 1978; McDermott International acquired Babcock & Wilcox.
 
Hall Contracting’s Mechanical Group, under the leadership of J. T. McLean and the field supervision of Jeff Keenon and Danny Lawson, had worked on several previous projects with Diamond Power.  Hall’s continuous focus on safety, quality, and cost lead to the high level of satisfaction experienced by Diamond Power and were the main factors in leading Diamond Power back to our door.
  
The Agreement designates Hall Contracting as the preferred contractor to install, maintain, and repair Diamond Power equipment in a seven state area that includes North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, and southern Ohio.
