La Strada Contracting has been a leading general engineering contractor in Southern California since its inception in 1999. Founded by Rudy Ruiz, who has over 35 years of experience in the construction industry, the company specializes in grading, paving, concrete curb & gutter, and decorative pavers. La Strada prides itself on its customer-first approach, maintaining seamless communication with home and land developers to ensure projects are executed successfully and on schedule. The company also manages its projects with a personal touch, as Rudy Ruiz collaborates directly with developers, foremen, and superintendents throughout the entire process.
In 2010, La Strada expanded its services to include the pipeline industry by acquiring the backlog of a retiring local company while keeping key personnel. This seamless integration led to the formation of La Strada Pipeline in 2016, a partnership between Rudy Ruiz and Chris Anselmo. Chris brings over 25 years of pipeline experience, leading a strong team dedicated to both street and utility projects. By providing services in grading, paving, and pipeline construction, La Strada allows its clients to gain cost and time efficiencies while promoting effective project transitions.
La Strada Contracting embraces social responsibility and actively participates in enhancing the communities in which they operate. The company supports various non-profits and encourages employee engagement in community causes, reflecting a sense of pride and commitment to corporate citizenship. With a history of reliable performance and an excellent reputation among its clients, La Strada Contracting continues to be a trusted partner for both private developers and public sector projects across a diverse range of environments.
