Meet Metro Leadership

Fifty-plus employees, locally owned out of Maplewood, and not one of them paid on commission. These are the faces you will actually see at your door.

Metro Heating and Cooling has grown from four friends in a Maplewood garage to a team of more than fifty people, and the hiring standard has not moved: we look for technicians we would be comfortable sending to our own parents' houses. That means clean work, plain explanations, and a quote before anybody picks up a tool.

Leadership & Office

The people who answer the phone, build the schedule and stand behind the work.

Leadership

Paul Reiland

President

Paul joined Metro Heating & Cooling in 2011 and has played an integral role in growing the company into what it is today. After initially focusing on marketing and building Metro’s service department, Paul took over leadership of the company following the sudden passing of his father and Metro’s founder, Dave Reiland. Outside of work, Paul enjoys spending time with his two-year-old son, being on the lake with friends and family, working on projects around the house, and anything involving cars.

Leadership

Nick Reiland

Vice President

Nick has been part of Metro Heating & Cooling since its earliest days, first helping his dad with invoicing and projects around the office while he was still in middle school. He later spent several years working in the field through high school and college before moving into the office full-time in 2019. Today, Nick oversees Metro’s plumbing operations, marketing, and many of the day-to-day aspects of running and growing the company. Outside of work, he enjoys traveling, spending time with friends and family, cars and car shows, and checking out new restaurants and places around town.

Eric was also a close friend of Metro’s founder, Dave Reiland, and the two spent years working together, usually with plenty of joking and laughter mixed in. Their friendship and personalities helped shape the fun, family-oriented culture that remains an important part of Metro today. Outside of work, Eric enjoys traveling, spending time at his home in Florida, and checking out new breweries.
