First Cable Construction has seen fantastic growth these past years, but we remain hands-on. We believe in keeping our company close-knit and knowing who each employee is. No matter how much we grow, we will always try our hardest to keep that “humane” touch. We host several events annually where we invite our entire staff and encourage them to bring spouses and kids. We’ve learned that people will put their best foot forward when they feel appreciated and acknowledged.
Our Story
Mr. Harris started doing cable in 2003 with a family member that was already in the industry. At the time, most cable companies paid “piece rate” rather than hourly. That means the employee is paid per task completed (ie, each box replaced, each cable placed, etc.). He said he busted his butt to learn as much as possible and complete as much as possible, and when he saw the 1st paycheck, he was in disbelief! He had never experienced a job that paid more based on the amount of work done. Hourly pay works great for most companies, but for the select few people that are extremely motivated and hard-working (like Mr. Harris), piece rate pay is extremely lucrative and motivating. He decided to invest his first few checks and start this company. The business was started in an apartment and converted into an office. Through steady growth and dedication, First Cable Construction is now run from a 13,000-square-foot building with a fully stocked warehouse and an office up front. Sixteen years later, we are a full-service utility construction company. We can run cable, duct, or piping in every way possible, from underground to aerial, & inside and outside buildings and businesses. We have an A+ rating with the Better business bureau and earned a solid reputation in the communications industry.
