Our History
Our storied timeline spans nearly a century and has played an integral role in the construction of many of Northern California’s most recognized landmarks and infrastructure projects. Established in 1926, McGuire and Hester began with the vision of two Irish immigrants, Mike McGuire and Mike Hester, who used their knowledge and hard work to achieve the American dream.
Through the decades, McGuire and Hester has developed into a full-service civil contractor. Today the company is 100% employee-owned and considered one of the top workplaces in the area. McGuire and Hester has a bright future that builds upon a strong legacy.
