About Paitson Bros

Paitson Bros. started in 1922 when two of the five Paitson Brothers, Bob and Stanley Paitson, opened a garage and service station at 15th and First Avenue in Terre Haute, Indiana. In 1928, they moved to Wabash Avenue and expanded into the hardware and heating business.

Bob’s son, Gene Paitson, joined the business in 1945 and Stanley’s son, Jack Paitson, joined in 1954. The operation prospered and in 1978, Jack’s son, Jeff Paitson joined the company.

The divisions had grown tremendously, the hardware being one of the largest True Value Hardware stores in the nation and the heating division was one of the oldest premier Lennox dealerships.

In 1987, Jack and Jeff Paitson purchased the heating and air conditioning division and it continues to be one the most outstanding independent Lennox premier dealerships in the country.
