SETTING THE STANDARD FOR
DEPENDABILITY
E.P. Breaux Utility Services delivers superior utility construction services across the Southeast U.S. and beyond. From small rural communities to major cities, we pride ourselves on providing high-quality work across diverse communities.
OUR STORY
In 1945, Ernest P. Breaux Sr. started a family-owned utility company in New Iberia, Louisiana, focused on residential work. As one of 11 children, Breaux began the business to help his parents support the family. Early on, Breaux instilled a commitment to dependability at the company—intent on providing the highest quality service to his customers. This led to the motto that guides everything we do to this day and adorns the tailgate of every company truck: Most Dependable.
The company eventually grew into five divisions—commercial, utility, industrial, communications, and service—with hundreds of employees. In 2015, Bernhard LLC acquired Ernest P. Breaux Electrical LLC, which now operates under the Bernhard brand. In 2021, the former Ernest P. Breaux Electrical LLC utilities division split from Bernhard and began operating as a new company, under the name E.P. Breaux Utility Services LLC.
E.P. Breaux Utility Services provides substation construction, underground distribution, and cable installations for major utility providers—such as Entergy, Cleco, CPS, AEP, WETT, and GRDA—as well as municipal partners across Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Texas. We also work on engineering, procurement, and construction projects with many large engineering firms, such as Burns & McDonnell, BETA, and EPC Services.
