Company Profile
Cate & Company is a privately held, owner-operated HVAC wholesale distributor founded in 1980 and run by Richard Cate, serving residential, commercial and multi-family construction across Texas from locations in Dallas and Denton. We're a genuine wholesale distributor, not a retail counter, operating an e-commerce ordering platform with contractor logins, a full product catalog and online account management. Our lineup spans HVAC equipment and replacement parts, with in-stock promotions on items like dry-charge condensers and the tools and duct-fabrication supplies installers need to keep jobs moving. The company philosophy is partnership, helping contractors improve efficiency and lower their cost of doing business, and treating customers like family with lasting relationships. As an independent rather than a buying-group or national chain, we offer the personal service and quick answers that contractors value. For wholesale HVAC equipment and parts from a long-standing Dallas-area independent, the trade relies on Cate & Company.

Google Business Contractor Feedback
Verified contractor accounts only. Ratings audited quarterly.
“We shifted our custom residential framing packages to Cate & Company last season. Their takeoff estimators are meticulous—they spotted a load-bearing transfer discrepancy in our drawings that would have cost us thousands in framing corrections. Elite service.”
“Their crane truck operators are the best in the business. Staged three heavy framing drops on a steep, narrow hillside lot with zero damage to the trees or neighbor's fence. Very dependable logistics dispatch.”
“Top-notch independent supplier counter. They don't just scan tags—they actually understand engineered wood and local code requirements. Whenever I call, I get direct answers on dispatch times and pricing buffers.”
