Serving Maiden from Our Belmont Location
Maiden is a town with deep roots in North Carolina’s textile history. According to Wikipedia, Maiden was incorporated on March 7, 1883, as a cotton mill site and trading center. The town is named from Maiden Creek, north of the area, with the name thought to originate from the native “Maidencane” grass found throughout the town.
We’re based in Belmont, approximately 30-35 minutes south of Maiden via NC-27 through Lincolnton or US-321. Maiden sits primarily in Catawba County with a small portion extending into Lincoln County, covering about 6.2 square miles. As of the 2020 Census, the town had a population of 3,736. When your heating or cooling system needs attention, you want someone who understands small-town service and can get there reliably.
Maiden proudly calls itself “The Biggest Little Football Town in the World” because of strong community support for the local high school team. The town also made history as home to Maiden High School, the first public high school in North Carolina with an observatory.
