Heating, cooling, plumbing, electrical, and backup power for Gilmore City homes and businesses. We're a short drive away in Humboldt, with a real person on the phone 24/7.
North Central Iowa Service provides 24/7 heating, cooling, plumbing, electrical, and generator service to homes and businesses in Gilmore City, Iowa. We are based in Humboldt, about 13 miles to the northeast, and have served Gilmore City and the surrounding area for more than 17 years.
Gilmore City sits right on the Humboldt and Pocahontas county line, and it is one of the closer towns to our Humboldt shop, a short, easy drive. They call it Iowa's Limestone Capital for good reason: the quarries north of town have been cutting stone since the 1880s, and in 1929 they turned up crinoid fossils that put the place on the geologic map.
It is a small, settled town, which means the housing stock skews older, and older homes carry aging furnaces, dated wiring, and plumbing due for an update. Out on the surrounding farmland and acreages, private wells, hard water, and storm-season outages shape what service really requires. We handle all of it with one licensed crew.
North Central Iowa Service is backed by licensed credentials issued through the State of Iowa. Owner Mitch Fridolfson holds a master's license in electrical, mechanical, and plumbing, and the team includes multiple journeymen licensed through the Iowa Department of Public Health. We are also a U.S. Department of Labor registered apprenticeship program.
We're not based in Gilmore City, but we're close, we're here often, and we answer the phone. That combination is why homeowners and businesses across the region keep calling.
Gilmore City is only about 13 miles from our Humboldt shop, one of the nearer towns we cover. That keeps it well within our regular service range, with short lead times on scheduled work and prompt emergency response.
When you call, someone answers. Day, night, weekend, or holiday. After hours that's owner Mitch directly. No phone tree, no overnight answering service in another state taking a message.
Heating, cooling, plumbing, electrical, and generators handled in-house by the same licensed crew. When a job crosses trades, it stays under one company instead of three contractors who don't share a schedule.

Gilmore City is limestone country, sitting near the buried rim of the ancient Manson meteorite crater with active quarries just north of town. For homeowners, the limestone story shows up in the water: private wells out here often run hard, putting mineral scale on water heaters, fixtures, and softeners, which is steady work for our plumbing side.
In town, a small and settled population means an older housing stock, the kind that benefits from furnace and AC replacement, electrical panel upgrades, and plumbing modernization. The open prairie and harsh North Central Iowa winters drive heating demand and make standby generators worthwhile on rural acreages, and every heating call we run includes a carbon monoxide safety check.
What that means for service here:
Mitch was very helpful with all questions I had and he made sure we got the new heater we needed. His employees were very good at their jobs and they help us know why our air-conditioning went out. I truly appreciate all that they did and they did such a great job and our new heater looks great. Thank you for a job well done.Sally O.Google Review
We have had amazing service with NCIS. Three years ago we put in a generator and had an electrical surge which in turn blew a fuse. My dad is on oxygen 24/7, I called at six in the morning and they were at my house within forty minutes. I live twenty minutes from their office. That was speedy service with that said I also put one in my own home. Again, great prompt service!!Amy P.Google Review
