our history
Our History at DEB Construction
DEB Construction, LLC. was founded in 1975 in Anaheim, California by Yakub “Jake” Vali, a structural engineer, and his two partners, a designer and a builder. Together, these three partners established the DNA of our company, as well as our name: Designer, Engineer, Builder. DEB Construction started out completing small residential and commercial jobs.
In 1978, Jake Vali, already the driving force of the company since its founding, bought out his two partners and took over sole ownership of DEB Construction. Our company also opened a branch office in San Jose, California later that year.
