In the last few years, California Drywall has experienced a dramatic revenue turnaround while vastly improving its safety record. The firm has also deepened its commitment to local philanthropy and invested in construction technology.
These strategies have led to subcontracting work on projects that have garnered national attention for the firm, which was founded in 1946 by Leonard "Ecky" Eckstrom. Two current company executives, Steve and Greg Eckstrom, are the founder's grandsons.
