JH Kelly work van - 1970's This image shows the evolution of our work fleet and the changes in our company logo.  The 70's were a time a great change at JH Kelly, as Dan Evans (husband to Jack Jr.'s daughter, Jackie) would later buy the company and take it to new heights!
The Daily News - You do That? Article - 1997 JH Kelly has evolved from a residential plumber to appliances, to industrial piping, to general contracting services.  This growth was a result of Dan Evans bringing in a team with a background in industrial, chemical/oil/gas experience.  This experience allowed JH Kelly to bring on more trades, take on more risk, and grow into a leading contractor in the Pacific Northwest.
Terry Major's Apprentice Class (Second from left, big smile) Longtime Sr. Vice President of Operations, Terry Major, retired in 2019 after 59 years working for JH Kelly.  Starting as an apprentice in 1960, Terry was a plumber who always knew how to get the most from his crews.  A hard critic, an endearing mentor and a lasting testament to our culture of hard work and success - Terry along with Dan Evans, Chuck Stronach, Clancy Kelly and others helped shape the industrial side of our business.  Their mentorship and lessons learned will be felt for future generations of Kelly workers.
