Talk to Us

Gateway Pacific Contractors, Inc. was founded on a cornerstone philosophy of satisfying our clients’ needs by creating a safe workplace, exceptional quality, commitment to schedule and a fair price.  Gateway Pacific is a true general contractor.  We self-perform the vast majority of our own projects with our own craftspeople and supervisors.  On a typical project this might include the earthwork, structural concrete and complete mechanical among other specialties. This self-performing approach allows us better overall control of our projects, keeps us competitive and offers the broadest base of opportunity for our staff.  

Established in 1987, Gateway Pacific specializes in the construction of water and wastewater projects in the western United States.  Gateway’s project bids range from $1 million to $20 million, and our annual revenues exceeded $27 million in 1998.  Gateway’s staff size ranges from 40 to 80, including 16 salaried employees.  Co-founder and President Evan Lundin has been involved in the construction of more than 30 concrete potable water reservoirs in the last 16 years.  This includes the largest pre-stressed concrete reservoir ever built in the United States at the time – the 33 million gallon tank for the Vallecitos Water District in San Marcos, California in 1999 (pictured on our home page).

Gateway Pacific possesses a State of California Contractors License (#517988), Class A & B, and has been pre-qualified or invited to bid for the Irvine Ranch Water District, San Dieguito Water District, Moulten Niguel Water District, Vallecitos Water District and Department of Water Resources.

Experienced Professionals/Streamlined Operations/Team Approach

From the earliest stages, projects receive the benefit of the Gateway Pacific team approach. Gateway Pacific is committed to providing direct access to our staff without unnecessary layers of bureaucracy. This team approach means that on-site experienced professional management can work directly with clients to bring about the best solution to a problem without needless delays or prevent one from happening.  Direct access to decisive management personnel and prompt action has been a cornerstone of Gateway Pacific’s operations and is key to its continued success.

Gateway’s clients become an integral part of the process.  Gateway works closely with each of our clients to develop the highest quality, most cost-effective solution to a project, from the construction of a small reservoir to a complex wastewater treatment plant. This integrated approach has served us well in the past. Gateway believes it will be even more important in the new millennium.  

Financial Strength and Stability

Gateway’s success has been achieved in large part due to our attention to financial basics. We have skillfully invested in our own future by concentrating on those areas we know we can perform successfully. In addition, skilled management personnel carefully monitor the progress of every project, regardless of its size. This attention to detail has set Gateway apart from our competition and a strong financial player.
