A Tradition of Distinction

In the world of telecommunications contractors and geotechnical construction, JG Contracting Company, Inc. has consistently emerged as a leader, setting industry benchmarks, and redefining the paradigms of quality and innovation.

Our Story

From JG’s inception, our vision has been to establish ourselves at the industry’s pinnacle of excellence. Our commitment to superior quality has always been our guiding philosophy.

A history of deep foundation and earth remediation (Geotechnical & Structural)
experience led JG to Telecommunications construction during the nationwide tower site rollout in the late 1990s. Since that time, we have expanded our knowledge and footprint in both Telecommunications and Geotechnical & Structural construction. From there, it was a short, seamless hop into specific plant and industrial specialty foundations, now handled through our Special Projects Division. Today, we celebrate a legacy of success in each of the three areas.
