The company behind the record
A contractor's contractor, out of Redding since 1971
Company
Cal Electro builds substations, generation plants, airport lighting and water systems for public agencies across California and Nevada.
A seventy-person shop out of a yard on Electro Way in Redding. The company started in 1971 and was incorporated in June 1979. The record runs to 131 projects published in full, from a Navy substation repair at China Lake to 500kV bay work at Tracy for Western Area Power Administration. The City of Redding has hired Cal Electro since 1994 and still does.
The same crews do the drilling, the civil, the mechanical and the electrical, which is why general contractors call one number instead of three. The self-perform page has the detail by discipline, and the project record has the jobs.

What we don't do
No residential, no tenant improvement, no service calls.
Cal Electro bids public works and industrial construction in California and Nevada, typically $250,000 to $6 million, as prime or as electrical subcontractor to a general. If that's your job, send the solicitation.
