We are excited to announce a significant milestone for home comfort in our region. Jolly Plumbing, Drains, Heating & Air has officially acquired Birkley Heating, Cooling & Electric’s customer base. This partnership brings together two of the most established, family-owned companies in Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. By combining our resources, we are better positioned to provide the reliable, high-quality service our neighbors have counted on for decades.
Honoring the Birkley Family Legacy
For more than 45 years, Birkley Heating, Cooling & Electric has been a staple in Fort Thomas. The company was built on a foundation of honest work and skilled craftsmanship. Founded by Joe Birkley, the business was a true family affair, eventually passed down to his son and then to his grandsons, Matt and Chris Birkley.
This three-generation commitment to quality aligns perfectly with our own history at Jolly. We understand the weight of a family name and the responsibility that comes with serving the community that helped shape us.
A Message from Our Leadership
This transition is rooted in a shared set of values: integrity, care, and a neighbor-first mindset. Brady Jolly, Owner and CEO of Jolly Plumbing, Drains, Heating & Air, shares his perspective on the partnership:
“This partnership is about people and community first. Northern Kentucky has always been an important place to me and my family. Being able to continue serving homeowners in the communities that helped shape who we are, alongside a company built on the same values, means a great deal.”
Expanded Services: Introducing Electrical Expertise
While we have long been known for our plumbing and HVAC expertise, this acquisition marks an important expansion for our team. We are officially introducing comprehensive electrical services to our lineup. This means you no longer have to call multiple contractors to handle your home’s vital systems.
Our expanded service menu now includes:
- Plumbing and Drain Cleaning: From minor leaks to major sewer repairs.
- Heating and Air Conditioning: Professional HVAC maintenance, repair, and installation for every season.
- New Electrical Solutions: Licensed expertise for wiring, panel upgrades, and residential electrical safety.
The Value of Locally Owned Leadership
In an era where many home service companies are being bought by large out-of-town corporations, Jolly remains one of the few truly locally owned and operated providers in the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area. Our expansion is more than just business growth. It is a long-term investment in our local economy and a commitment to keeping home service personalized and trustworthy.
Seamless Transition for Existing Customers
If you have been a loyal Birkley customer, we want to reassure you that your home is in great hands. Service will continue seamlessly with the same local care and familiar values you have always known. You now have the added benefit of a broader team of technicians and a wider range of services to keep your home running smoothly.
We are honored to welcome you into the Jolly family. Contact us today to experience our expanded home comfort services or to schedule your next maintenance visit.

Our service footprint remains focused on Northern Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati. We continue to serve homeowners across Campbell, Kenton, and Boone counties in Kentucky, as well as several communities throughout the Cincinnati area in Ohio. This acquisition actually strengthens our ability to reach these neighborhoods more efficiently.
Does the team provide seasonal maintenance for heating and cooling systems?
Yes. We offer comprehensive maintenance plans designed to keep your furnace and air conditioner running at peak performance.

Is the staff composed of local community technicians?
Absolutely. One of the core reasons for this partnership was the alignment of our teams. We are proud to employ skilled technicians who live and work in the same Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati neighborhoods they serve.
