In 1982, Brien Blakeney founded B&B, which started as a small residential electrical service provider. Not long after the company's establishment, the decision was made to venture into the Commercial and Industrial markets, and also to start working with various municipalities and counties to install and maintain their ball field lighting. B&B Electrical Contractors was incorporated in 1985.
In 1994, the decision was made to explore the electrical utility industry. B&B Utility Contractors, Inc., was the product of that expansion. Incorporated in 1995, B&B Utility provides overhead and underground power distribution, lighting, design/build contracts, and traffic signalization construction. B&B also provides airfield lighting, including taxiway, runway, approach and beacon tower installations.
In 2002, B&B incorporated the sister companies, B&B Electrical and B&B Utility, into one company name, B&B Electrical & Utility Contractors, Inc. Then, beginning in June 2004, B&B expanded into yet another specialty service with the substation construction and maintenance division. B&B made an offer and was successful in acquiring a branch of seasoned substation veterans with a wealth of experience. This new division compliments the existing services the company provides and makes B&B a one stop electrical contractor.
The present home office for B&B is in Brandon, Mississippi. B&B also has 3 other locations including Saucier on the gulf coast, Canton, and Horn Lake, Mississippi.
