About Hi Tide
No runaround.
Just solid work.
We come from telecommunications—new builds, carrier add-ons, maintenance windows, safety requirements, technical standards, and work that has to be right before the site goes live.
Hi Tide Trades is a service-disabled veteran-owned company built around telecom field services, wireless and fiber infrastructure, technical staffing, and government contracting. AV production, staging, and rentals remain part of what we do, backed by the same discipline: communicate clearly, own the scope, and finish the work.
