Redwood Services, a home services firm focused on investing in leading residential HVAC, plumbing and electrical services companies in growing U.S. markets, has announced it has invested in Parks Heating Cooling Plumbing & Electrical. 

Parks was founded over 50 years ago and has been a leading provider of heating, air conditioning, plumbing, sewer and drain, and electrical services throughout Charlotte, North Carolina ever since. With more than 60 employees, Parks serviced nearly 7,000 customers last year. 

"For half a century, Parks has been providing outstanding services in Charlotte and building a reputation as a company that really cares for its people," said Richard Lewis, CEO of Redwood Services. "Putting people first is at the heart of everything we do at Redwood and we look forward to joining forces with their team to help their business thrive in the future." 

Long-time owner and native Charlottean, Wyatt Tucker, will retain a significant minority ownership stake as part of the investment. The Parks team will continue to operate and manage the business under the Parks' banner and name, while Redwood will offer operational, strategic, and financial support to enhance the company's growth in the Charlotte market. 

"Redwood's principles and philosophy mirror what we do on a daily basis at Parks," said Tucker, president and general manager of Parks. "Our people are our biggest asset — and it's refreshing to team up with a group that shares our values and commitment to our people and their families."
