Who We Are

Wisler Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric proudly serves Roanoke, Franklin County, and the Smith Mountain Lake area. Founded in 1986 by Daniel Wisler, our company was built on a commitment to doing what is fair and right. From the beginning, Daniel led by example—teaching the importance of integrity, accountability, perseverance, and taking responsibility, even when it’s difficult.

Those values continue to guide our business today and are deeply woven into our culture. They shape how we lead, how we support our teams, and how we make decisions. We believe strong values are the difference between a company that simply survives and one that truly thrives.

You will help ensure our people practices align with our core beliefs—supporting leaders, developing employees, holding standards, and fostering an environment built on trust, fairness, and respect. This role is both strategic and hands-on, ideal for an HR leader who values people, accountability, and long-term growth.
