About us
Our Commitments
Always Safe | Customer – Focused Integration | Unparalleled Reliability
For more than 40 years, America’s largest communications and energy providers have turned to LeCom to install and maintain their systems. The LeCom team is proud of the industry-wide respect we have built by providing a highly skilled, dependable, safety-minded workforce.
In 2020, LeCom was acquired by Thayer Power & Communication, based in Pataskala, OH, in their efforts to build a regional service provider for the power and telecommunications industries. That same year, Thayer Infrastructure Services Group (TIS) was formed to oversee a growing family of companies, bolstered by Thayer Power and Communication and LeCom Utility Contractors.
In 2021, LeCom moved its corporate office to a new space in Warren, MI to accommodate our rapid growth. In addition to our corporate office, we have nine regional offices across the state of Michigan as well as one regional office location in Gas City, IN.
LeCom takes pride in our reputation for quality, our culture of safety, and our ability to stay current with the evolving utility industry needs, utilizing all five teams to take client concepts from start to finish. Our Power, Fiber, Underground, Joint Use, and Emergency Restoration Teams can ramp up quickly, working together or separately to achieve all goals and timelines. One of the best things about LeCom and its family of companies is that we can work separately or as a team, bringing multiple divisions and entities on board, to complete a project safely and efficiently anywhere in our regional footprint.
