Every job, named

Eighteen jobs, and every one is named.

Our old website put nineteen photos into a lightbox with no names on any of them. That was never going to hold up next to fifty years of real Lubbock buildings, so we fixed it. Everything below is one of our own jobs: a school, a bank branch, a civic building with a clock tower, a restaurant, panels, rough-in, and the trucks that get us there. Licence #17852, family owned since 1974.

The work itself

What a job looks like before the walls close.

Conduit and cable tray run overhead, a bank of panels with circuits landed, rough-in stud by stud in block and timber shells, a fixture set into a timber ceiling, and a warehouse of high-bay lighting. Most of it disappears behind a finished wall or a dropped ceiling, so this is usually the only chance anyone gets to see it.
