Warwick Mechanical Group is a full service mechanical engineering and construction firm, providing mechanical systems for commercial, institutional and industrial buildings and facilities throughout Southeastern Virginia, Central Virginia and Northeastern North Carolina.Formerly known as Warwick Plumbing & Heating Corporation, the firm adopted its new name and branding in 2016 and created four operating divisions (Mechanical Contracting, Industrial Contracting, Mechanical Service, and Fabrication) to better represent the company's capabilities and differentiate its scope of services.The company was incorporated in 1952 in the old city of Warwick, now Newport News. E. B. "Pete" Meekins headed the company until he retired in 1970. Upon Mr. Meekin's retirement, Spurgeon P. Toney and George R. Goodson, Jr. became the principal stockholders and increased the company to an annual volume in excess of ten million dollars. Spurgeon P. Toney served as president until 1984 when he retired. Upon Spurgeon P. Toney retirement, George Goodson, Jr. then became Chairman and CEO of the company.In 1980 G. Royden Goodson, III joined the company and later in 1990, his brother Pax Goodson also joined. Collectively, with James Jarman, vice-president of operations and William A. Phelps, Jr., vice-president of estimating, they grew the company to an annual volume in excess of twenty million dollars.In 1993, Royden Goodson assumed the role of president and continued to grow the company. In 2008, volume grew to 100 million dollars. Warwick now has two prefabrication shops, a BIM and coordination department, and three branch locations: Newport News, Hampton, and Richmond. The company also made a commitment to the Northeastern North Carolina area and re-entered the HVAC service business, which it had exited in 1984.
