Built Because Reliable Service
Should Not Be Hard to Find

Putnam Maintenance was founded by Chad Gilbert and Martin Ing after years of working with contractors across the properties and businesses they managed.

Too often, they encountered the same problems homeowners and business owners face every day: missed appointments, poor communication, temporary fixes, inconsistent workmanship, and no clear accountability when something went wrong.

They knew the standard could be higher.

Chad and Martin created Putnam Maintenance to provide the kind of service they had always expected from others—skilled technicians, honest recommendations, dependable communication, and work completed with care.

Their experience as licensed contractors and longtime local business owners shaped every part of the company. Putnam Maintenance was built to solve problems correctly, protect the property, and create long-term relationships rather than chase one-time service calls.

Today, our team provides HVAC, plumbing, electrical, appliance repair, preventive maintenance, and whole-building services throughout Cookeville and the Upper Cumberland. Whether we are repairing a home air conditioner or maintaining a commercial property, we bring the same standards to every job.

We are locally owned, locally accountable, and committed to doing work we are proud to put our name on.
