Our History
Over a 40 year period MCS has grown from a traditional 'one man band' business, to where we are today.
​
In the 1980s Mike and Geri Sykes set up MCS Heating, working from home in East Yorkshire. The home office slowly became a hub for organising work, taking phone calls and dealing with suppliers, long before working from home was the norm!
​
We began to gain notability for reliability, quality and professionalism. Gaining work with many local clients and institutions some of whom are still clients to this day.
​
Mike and Geri decided to start a family, welcoming Lucy in 1990 and Harry in 1993.
The business grew exponentially into the late 90s, with Mike then coming away from the majority of hands-on work to manage the now growing team of engineers under employment.
​
MCS changed premises from the family home in 1995, to our office on Beverley Road in Hull.
​
Over the next 5-10 years the team would grow to over 20 members of staff. Now with thousands of local clients to look after the engineering and administration team grew annually.
​
In 2010, Harry Sykes became an apprentice heating engineer at MCS working alongside engineers to learn his craft, qualifying around 2 years later to become a fully fledged member of the engineering team.
​
Harry began working his way up the business, whilst bringing new ideas and enthusiasm to grow the business further.
​
In 2022 Geri retired fully with Mike taking semi-retirement. Both often visit the office to meet new faces and see what new and exciting projects, services or developments the business is involved in.​

The defibrillator provides a vital service to the local community & we are pleased to play an ongoing part in providing this facility.
