Our Services

Distribution

We provide overhead and underground electric distribution services focused on safety, quality, and reliable performance. We also deliver residential streetlight installation and maintenance, including LED conversions and first-response repairs, using specialized equipment, trained crews, and an in-house auger crew for faster service.

Transmission & Substation

We deliver safe, efficient transmission line construction and maintenance, including work on energized high-voltage circuits, remote rights-of-way, and new line builds, with crews operating with precision in demanding conditions.

Fiber & Telecoms

We provide fiber installation, repair, and maintenance with 25+ years of experience, including Optical Ground Wire (OPGW), All-Dielectric Self-Supporting (ADSS), lashed, and buried fiber for utility and telecom networks. Certified splicers handle single-mode, multi-mode, ribbon, and OPGW splicing with rapid restoration, and our cellular team supports 5G builds and maintenance with 400+ small cell sites delivered.

Renewable Energy

Our crews support solar-powered transmission and distribution, specializing in substation and transformer retrofits plus underground transmission cable installation and maintenance. Working with solar farms and community co-ops, we help integrate solar into local grids while advancing environmental stewardship.

Storm Response & Restoration

We monitor weather early and align with customers and crews to prepare impact zones, resource needs, staging plans, and internal support. We coordinate pre-deployment logistics and compliance, maintain real-time field communication and performance tracking, and deliver clear post-event cost reconciliation for a fast return to normal.
