Why utilities with us

Crews that utility owners trust on their poles.

Utility work is coordination-heavy and unforgiving of shortcuts. We've built our reputation on doing it right, in the right order, with the right people.

Tier 1 preferred sub

Major regional primes across NH, ME, and VT hold us at tier-1 preferred subcontractor status — the crews they call first.

Licensed & insured

Licensed operators with the coverage utility owners require before anyone touches their plant.

Built-in traffic control

Our sister company, Granite State Traffic Control, protects our work zones — one call covers the lane closure and the line work.

Storm-ready

New England weather is our operating environment. When storms hit, our crews mobilize for assessment and restoration.

For utility owners & program managers

Prime-ready aerial construction.

We've built our reputation as the tier-1 preferred subcontractor regional primes call first. Now we're taking that same crew capacity, safety culture, and self-performed quality direct — as a prime contractor for aerial builds, from utility make-ready programs to state broadband expansion routes.

  • Self-performed aerial construction and OSP splicing — no sub-of-a-sub layers
  • In-house work-zone traffic control through Granite State Traffic Control
  • Mobilize up to 15 crews within days, 30 crews with a week's notice
  • Direct coordination with utility owners, inspectors, and municipalities
  • A mid-sized company sized to care about your program — and staffed to deliver it
