In 1979, with a small fleet of machinery and large ambitions to become the best grading and paving company in Northern California, two young contractors formed a partnership and launched Duran & Venables. Their mission was to build a successful business based on strong work ethics and values, quality people, and outstanding workmanship. Their early years of hard work and perseverance paid off when
the business began to grow and expand into regions all across Northern California, projects doubled in size and scope, and its fleet of machinery and engines increased dramatically. Today, Duran & Venables employs more than 100 professionals at its headquarters in Milpitas and Sacramento office. The company serves diverse segments of the market, including commercial, industrial and public works. For more than 30 years, Duran & Venables has built a reputation as a leading provider of grading and paving construction services. Operating on the premise that "with great people, we will produce great work," Duran & Venables continues its steady growth throughout Northern California while upholding its values of integrity, quality and service.
