Built on family. Driven by purpose.

Family-owned and disabled-veteran-owned. Northern California crews, working with safety, quality and care.

Our story

Lopez Companies is a family-owned, disabled veteran-owned construction and maintenance company serving communities throughout Northern California. Whether working as a General Contractor, subcontractor or long-term maintenance partner, we bring the same commitment to every project: Safety, Quality and Care. We take pride in building, improving and maintaining the communities we call home.

From one person to a growing team

The Lopez Companies was established in 2023 as a small, one-person operation that started by pressure washing sidewalks. From there, we continued to grow—building playgrounds, maintaining parks, providing porter services, partnering with local cities, and eventually expanding our construction capabilities into the company we are building today.

One company, shared responsibility

General building and civil construction are at the core of what we do. Whether serving as the General Contractor or subcontractor, we bring hands-on experience and a commitment to Safety, Quality and Care from the first site walk through final completion.

Our founder

Fernando D. Lopez

President and CEO

After serving in the Marine Corps, Fernando wasn't exactly sure what direction he wanted to take. In 2008, he entered the construction industry and found his career. Since then, he's had the opportunity to work on major and mega projects throughout California and serve in different capacities, including as a union ironworker, union carpenter, quality control professional, and safety professional. That experience ultimately helped shape the vision behind The Lopez Companies.

Education and continued growth

Education and continued growth are also important to Fernando. He holds a Bachelor's degree in Occupational Safety and Health from Columbia Southern University and is currently attending Cal State Monterey Bay pursuing his Master of Business Administration.

God, family and our team

Fernando values God, family, and our team. The Lopez Companies exists not only to build and maintain projects, but to create opportunities for our team members and their families while providing our clients with exceptional attention to detail, professionalism, and an experience that sets us apart.

Safety. Quality. Care.

Safety, Quality and Care connect Fernando's experience and purpose with how we prepare, build and work with the people around us.

  • Safety

    Plan the work, talk through hazards and make room for crews to raise concerns. Safety starts with preparation and continues throughout the day.

  • Quality

    Pay attention to the plans, materials and details that shape the finished work. Coordinate inspections and address questions before moving to the next step.

  • Care

    Respect our crews, clients and the communities around each jobsite. Communicate clearly and take responsibility for the work in front of us.

Our foundation

This scripture is the foundation of how we lead, how we serve, and how we conduct our work. It guides our commitment to our employees, our clients and the communities we serve through Safety, Quality and Care.

Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.
Proverbs 16:3
