Drake Heating & Air Is Now Bassett Services

Change can feel bittersweet, especially when it involves a company that has served its community with pride for years. If Drake Heating & Air has been your go-to home services provider in the Dayton area, you might be wondering what comes next. We are happy to share that Drake Heating & Air has officially partnered with Bassett Services, a trusted name in home comfort that has been serving Midwest homeowners since 1978.
This partnership brings together two companies that share the same heart for service, craftsmanship, and doing right by both customers and employees. While the Drake website will be shut down, the commitment to quality, honesty, and dependable service is not going anywhere. It is simply continuing under the Bassett Services name, with even more resources and support behind it.
The Drake Way Lives On!
At Drake Heating & Air, everything revolved around what Mr. Drake called “The Drake Way.” That meant mediocrity was never acceptable, not in service, not in workmanship, and not in how people were treated. Every technician was factory-trained, never a contractor, and every truck was stocked like a mobile repair shop so jobs could be done quickly and correctly the first time.
Upfront pricing, affordable services, and a 100 percent satisfaction guarantee were not marketing buzzwords. They were everyday promises. Drake believed in making life easier for customers and creating real work-life balance for employees. No fine print, no surprises, and no shortcuts. That mindset built trust across the Dayton area and created a team of professionals who took pride in showing up and doing their best work every single day.
That same philosophy is a natural fit with Bassett Services.
A Trusted Midwest Partner Since 1978
Bassett Services has been serving homeowners for decades, starting as a family-founded company in Indianapolis back in 1978. From day one, the promise was simple: treat customers like neighbors and deliver honest, reliable home services without games or pressure.
Over the years, Bassett has grown, but the values have stayed the same. The basset hound that represents the brand says a lot about how the company operates. Loyal, persistent, and thorough. When something goes wrong in your home, Bassett does not rush through the job or push unnecessary upgrades. The focus is on finding the real issue and fixing it right.
That approach has made Bassett the first call for many Midwest homeowners when comfort or safety is on the line.
Why This Partnership Makes Sense
Both Drake Heating & Air and Bassett Services believe that great service starts with great people. Today’s heating, cooling, plumbing, and electrical systems are more advanced than ever, and proper installation and maintenance truly matter. Bassett has a careful process for selecting and training technicians who not only know the equipment but also know how to communicate clearly and professionally with homeowners.
This partnership means customers benefit from deeper technical expertise, expanded service offerings, and a larger support network, all while keeping the neighborly, no-nonsense service experience they are used to. It is not about losing a local touch, it is about strengthening it.
