Leo Tidwell Excavating Corporation // 46 Years

The companybeneath it all.

A utilities contractor for forty-six years — substructure: plowing, trenching, excavating, directional boring, rodding, pulling, paving, conduit and cable placing, fiber placing and pulling, and manhole placement.

01 // The Work

Dry utilities, done right

Our present markets include all dry utilities, specializing in underground telephone and power substructure placement. Our customers include major companies — Verizon, AT&T, PG&E, SCE, Lumen, Level 3, Sprint, MCI, and more.

The opportunities for utility construction have been dynamic. Existing substructure needs upgrading, fiber optic is the choice of the future, and the demand for turn-key work exceeds the capabilities of most contractors. LTEC can and will get the job done.

We submit proposals on large projects as well as day-to-day time-and-material jobs — with modern computer systems, up-to-date technology, and trained personnel proficient in current industry software.
