James Eckerman Construction

Specialties

All types of electrical, gas piping, and general construction. Specialties include fully automatic standby generators (of which we are qualified sales/​service/​warranty for) of the following brands: Generac, Briggs and Stratton, General Electric. We also do utility electrical and gas in all phases, panel changes, tub runs, etc. All work is supervised and mostly performed by the owner to ensure highest quality. The biggest complaint you may hear about this business is that it may take some time to get to you; but never that it lacked quality.

History

Established in 2003.

After switching careers from US Merchant Marine Engineer to Semiconductor Equipment Engineer I found myself laid off in the downturn of ’03. Never being one to rest I was let go on a Thursday and swinging a hammer on the next Monday. As time went by I found myself more comfortable back in the trades (I grew up working my way through college getting my BSME in the trades). I put to use the education and experience of the previous twenty years into my business. Legitimate, licensed contractor, bonded, insured, up to code and up to date. Slowly but surely my clientele has grown. Most of my customers are repeat business. Ask me for referrals.

James E.

Business Owner

Graduated California Maritime Academy 1997 with BSME and USCG Merchant Marine Engineer License. Worked as US Merchant Marine Engineer, Semiconductor Equipment Engineer, and self employed licensed contractor since 2004. Specialize in all forms of power: electrical, generators, gas (LP and NG), solar (on and off grid) as well as general construction projects that require attention to detail. Basically I received a formal education in power engineering, gained some valuable experience in the field, and now bring that experience to my endeavors as a contractor. Have also done a significant number of related things along the way like race motorcycles, build motors, build houses and additions, etc, etc. I completely funded my education (with the help of the GI Bill after serving in the USCG during the Gulf War) and know value when I see it. I try to bring those core values I learned in the USCG Officers Corps to my projects: Honesty, Integrity and Devotion to Duty.
