Our Mission
Doing whatever it takes to make a difference in the lives of everyone around us.
Our Core Values
Leadership Team
Our company was started from a garage and an old Chevy Astro van by Robert Edward Evancik, a second-generation tradesman growing up in the streets of New Jersey. Looking to better his life, Robert attended HVAC trade school in 1975 where he excelled in his career as a union journeyman with Delta Engineering, servicing commercial and industrial equipment. By 1985 he realized the beaches and palm trees to the west in California are where he and his family’s future lay. After building his home from the ground up in Temecula CA, he now had his opportunity to start his own HVAC company.
Being located between 2 major cities Los Angeles & San Diego he had ample opportunity, for a tradesman with his knowledge and background. As his sons grew older, they showed interest in the trade and shortly after high school came into the company. Groomed by their father over the years, the two sons mastered their skills in the field and transitioned into office staff to help their father grow R.E.E. Mechanical Inc. into what it is today. Robert retired in 2012 and is now a world traveler who accomplished the American Dream and his legacy of safety, accountability, balance & respect which will live on throughout the next generation of tradesmen to come.
