What ALBD Electric and Cable does

ALBD Electric and Cable is a full-service commercial electrical contractor founded in 2006 and headquartered in La Habra, California, with a regional office in Phoenix, Arizona. The company originated as a two-person startup focused on high-end event lighting and evolved into a multi-regional electrical enterprise with 250+ team members following its October 2022 merger with Ironwood Electric LLC, an Anaheim-based contractor specializing in tenant improvements and design-build work. ALBD is privately held and structured as an employee-owned organization with no institutional investor or PE backing disclosed.

The company's core offering spans the full electrical construction lifecycle: ground-up commercial and industrial construction, tilt-up shells, underground dry utilities, design-build, tenant improvements, hospitality, multi-tenant and mixed-use developments, and a dedicated Service & Maintenance Division delivering scheduled and on-call electrical/lighting support including LED retrofits, thermal imaging, NFPA 70E ARC Flash analysis, and energy audits. Specialized capabilities include an in-house prefabrication department that produces electrical components off-site to compress on-site labor, and a dedicated Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) installation team. The firm emphasizes 100% self-performance with no subcontracting and operates under California C-10 (#843942) and Arizona CR-11 (#ROC 333747) licenses alongside credentials from ISN, Veriforce, EVITP, Qmerit, ABC, and BIA.

ALBD generates revenue primarily through project-based electrical construction contracts ranging from $10K to $10M+ in scope, supplemented by recurring service & maintenance agreements. Go-to-market is exclusively direct enterprise field sales targeting general contractors (PCL Construction, Ryan Companies, Shawmut, Swinerton, C.W. Driver, Snyder Langston), developers, property owners, government/municipal entities, and large end-customers such as Amazon, Apple, Tesla, Costco, Carvana, Lennar Homes, and Southern California Edison. Distribution is regional across Southern California and the Greater Phoenix area; the company has no public pricing, no retail channel, and no disclosed revenue. Recent awards include multiple ABC SoCal Excellence in Construction Awards (2022 for Amazon SAX2 and SAX3, 2025 for the Tesla Diner & Supercharger) and a LEED Platinum Certification on the Apple CU21 project.
