Nathan Shanks – New Owner Baldon Heating, Cooling & Plumbing
On January 1st, Bill Baldon is retiring, handing Baldon Heating, Cooling, and Plumbing over to current serviceman and new owner Nathan Shanks.
Baldon and Son Heating, Cooling, and Plumbing is the oldest shop in Dallas County.
The employee owned and operated service provider has played a key role in developing Adel, having installed the original plumbing in historic buildings throughout town, celebrating 100 years of service in 2015.
When Bill began looking at retirement, he also began looking for a successor. 2 years ago, Bill found him in Nathan.
Nathan Shanks started out as a plumber 15 years ago when he was looking for a new career. 10 years later, after establishing a wealth of knowledge and experience, Nathan sought further challenges and went back to school to receive his Masters License in Plumbing.
Nathan had heard that Bill was looking to retire, and came on as his lead serviceman.
Over the past two years Nathan has gotten to know the Baldon HVAC customer base, providing the same great service the company is known for.
6 months ago, Nathan and his wife Melissa purchased a house in Adel and have enjoyed living and working in town. Melissa volunteers for AHeinz57 Pet Rescue, and Nathan is an Elder at their church.
Bill Baldon and Nathan Shanks
“We’re all in at this point- we bought a house from Bill’s dad near the Brick Yard. I don’t think I could be anymore committed to this new venture. I like it here-it’s nice and quiet.”
Now that the handoff is complete, Nathan wants everyone to know that business will continue as usual. The fair pricing structure will stay the same, SAVE certifications will remain, and Nathan will be adding geothermal services and remodeling work to the repertoire, which is one of Nathan’s specialties.
Two services will retire with Bill: Baldon Heating, Cooling, and Plumbing will no longer offer sewer cleaning services and well pump extractions. Nathan is able to continue servicing all other well pump needs.
As always, Baldon Hardware Store will remain a separate business. You can now contact Nathan directly 24 hours a day with your service needs by calling 515-371-4036.
Join us in thanking Bill Baldon for his years of exceptional service to our community, and in congratulation Nathan Shanks for continuing this legacy.
