Precision. Punctuality. Commitment to excellence.

Aviation Mechanical is a locally owned mechanical contractor serving Saskatoon and surrounding communities, providing dependable comfort solutions for homeowners, property managers, and businesses. We focus on doing the job right: clear communication, clean workmanship, and results you can feel—especially on those classic prairie “why do we live here again?” days.


Built on experience you can count on

Our founder, Derek Zimmerman, brings 25 years of hands-on trade experience to every project. That experience shows up in the details: accurate system sizing, well-planned duct layouts, tidy mechanical rooms, and practical recommendations that fit your space and budget.

We’ve built our reputation by showing up when we say we will, doing what we say we’ll do, and standing behind the work.

Integrity is part of the job

Aviation Mechanical is built around honesty, accountability, and customer care. Derek remains closely involved in projects and service work to maintain consistent standards—because your comfort system isn’t a “set it and forget it” purchase. It’s something you live with every day.

Efficient, cost-conscious, and lower-impact options

Cutting energy waste is one of the simplest ways to reduce monthly costs. We offer energy-conscious recommendations designed to improve performance without overselling upgrades you don’t need.

Our efficiency-focused work may include:

  • Higher-efficiency equipment options (where a payback makes sense)
  • Airflow and duct improvements that reduce run time
  • Maintenance and tune-ups to keep systems operating smoothly

Shayne Zaba

“Aviation Mechanical is your best option for high quality HVAC work from heating systems to cooling systems and the connections in between. Derek was honest, experienced, and easy to deal with both when he fixed the heater and thermostat at our commercial building and when he installed my parent’s new air conditioner. ”

Ward Brooks

“Our furnace was working only intermittently. Derek was responsive and easy to work with. Better yet he had the part needed to fix it! Derek is pleasant and easy to work with. ”

Travis Hebert

“ Derek and team are excellent HVAC specialists. I’ve had them provide an array of smaller services, ranging from installing bathroom ventilation systems to ceiling fans. Derek was also responsive in providing a quote for a new air conditioning unit and some HVAC maintenance, which we will be completing in the summer. Highly recommended. ”

When things go wrong, we’re here

A failed heating or cooling system can disrupt your entire day (or night). We offer 24/7 availability, so you can reach us when it matters most.
