Winning the Detroit Free Press Top Workplaces award for the fourth year in a row is an honor that carries deep meaning for us at Rolls Mechanical. After 31 years in business, this recognition isn’t about prestige — it’s about people. What makes this award truly unique is that it’s based solely on anonymous employee feedback, gathered from one of the largest workplace surveys in the state. Nearly 100,000 Michigan workers were surveyed, and out of hundreds of companies across the region, Rolls Mechanical ranked #14 in mid-sized businesses! That ranking comes directly from the voices within our own walls — and that makes all the difference.
From the beginning, our mission has been centered on building — building people, building communities, building cultures. We’re not just in the mechanical trade; we are in the people business. For decades we have committed to creating a workplace where individuals are respected, developed, supported, and valued. That is why receiving this award again matters so much: it’s a clear sign that our team feels what we work so hard to build. They feel the stability, the respect, the opportunity, the belief that their craft and their future matter. They feel that this place is different — because to us, it is.
Our “BEST is PERSONAL” campaign captures the heart of who we are. Excellence isn’t a corporate slogan — it’s something lived on every job sites, in training rooms, at early-morning huddles, and in every moment when a teammate chooses to go the extra mile for someone else. When it’s personal, accountability rises. Pride rises. Care rises. Winning Top Workplaces for the fourth year proves that our best is not only seen in the buildings we construct — it’s reflected in the culture we protect and the lives we impact.
As we look toward the future, this recognition isn’t a finish line; it’s fuel. It reminds us that our values — integrity, stability, legacy, respect, and service — are not just words on a wall but actions that shape daily life here. It affirms our commitment to staying family-owned forever, resisting the private-equity wave, and preserving a company where people can build long, meaningful, prosperous blue-collar careers. We are humbled, grateful, and proud — proud of our #14 ranking, proud of our streak, and proud of the incredible team that makes Rolls Mechanical one of Michigan’s Top Workplaces year after year. Because when the work is personal, the results speak for themselves.
