Hydraulic Cylinder Repair in Florida

Owner of hydraulic repair in Florida

Brian Eldridge– Owner, Milling Technologies

Growing up in Wauchula, Florida, my father owned a Ford Tractor dealership, and I started helping around the shop at just eight years old—eventually learning to repair and maintain equipment from a very young age. That early experience laid the foundation for my lifelong passion for machinery and hydraulic repair.

After high school, I joined the Army in 1988, proudly serving in the 82nd Airborne Division until 2002. That same year, I launched a mobile hydraulic repair service from my garage as a side job, helping local businesses and farmers with on-site equipment repairs. By 2007, I opened my first physical shop—a 2,000-square-foot facility—and by 2011, due to growing demand for hydraulic cylinder repair in Florida, we expanded to a 30,000-square-foot location.

In addition to running one of the top-rated Florida hydraulic shops, I’ve remained committed to veterans. In 2017, I began jumping with Phantom Airborne Brigade, a nonprofit veteran parachute team. Later that year, a fellow veteran and I acquired the name and equipment to grow the organization into a nonprofit that conducts both land and water jumps—providing disabled and injured veterans with accessible, meaningful experiences.

Today, our shop not only offers trusted hydraulic service near me for customers across the state, but also supports a growing community of over 500 veterans through Phantom Airborne Brigade. I’m proud of what we've built—on the job site, in the air, and in service to those who’ve served.
