Oakdale is one of the most established residential communities in the East Metro. From the neighborhoods surrounding Tanners Lake and Oak Marsh Golf Course to homes along Hadley Avenue, Helmo Avenue, and the Interstate 94 corridor, thousands of homeowners rely on systems that were installed during Oakdale’s major growth years between the 1970s and 1990s. Today, many of those homes are entering a new phase where furnaces, air conditioners, water heaters, electrical panels, and other major systems are reaching replacement age.
That’s one reason Oakdale has become one of Hurlburt’s strongest East Metro service markets. We serve approximately 500 local customers annually and work throughout the community every week helping homeowners make informed decisions about repairs, upgrades, and long-term home investments.

Helping Oakdale Homeowners Plan for the Next Generation of Home Systems
Many Oakdale homeowners have already gone through one round of major equipment replacements. The furnace installed in the early 2000s is now aging. The air conditioner added during a previous remodel is no longer operating as efficiently as it once did. The electrical panel that seemed more than adequate years ago may now be supporting smart devices, home offices, and electric vehicle chargers. Throughout Oakdale, homeowners are making decisions about what to repair, what to replace, and what upgrades will deliver the greatest long-term value.
