2020 Highlights

Without stating the obvious, 2020 will go down as a year like no other. With all the challenges at work and in our personal lives caused by the pandemic,  MBS Engineering has been fortunate to be considered an “essential business” which allowed us to continue working for you as gas leaks don’t stop during a pandemic! I am proud of my team as they have continued to be present and diligently show up for work each day, able to respond to our client’s needs. We also appreciate all our clients who have faced similar issues and chose us to complete their projects.
We know many of you and your businesses have been impacted by the virus in different ways and we appreciate the trust you have in us. I know that it has not always been easy to come to work each day or to stay connected for those who work remotely, but you have proven that when we work together, anything is possible!

In 2020 we worked for 22 School Districts and 11 Colleges and Universities, at over 100 different campuses, and we worked for dozens of customers in government, municipalities, housing, commercial businesses, hotels, factories, healthcare facilities and commercial contractors.
This year alone, MBS has installed 400 Seismic Shut-off Valves, performed 45 emergency gas leak repairs, completed gas surveys at over 100 different sites across California, installed over 20 miles of new gas piping, and performed more than 150 gas system projects including repairs, rebuilds and relocations, gas tie-ins, PG&E Backfill and worked on over 10 Dry Utility projects.

I continue to be humbled by the dedication of my team and the continued growth of MBS, but without you none of this would have been possible, thank you for your business this past year and here’s to a Happy New Year!
Brian James, President, MBS Engineering
