Hester Fabrication was started in 2010 out of a little garage in Oakland, Ca. After working in heavy construction for over a decade, civil engineer Daniel Hester decided it was time to open a job shop of his own. Daniel is passionate about designing and fabricating unique solutions to complex problems. He's obsessed with the details, and building things that will last forever.

In 2014, Hester Fab made the move to its current facility in Hayward Airport Industrial Park. Business continues to grow as customers realize the value of having an all-in-one design, engineering, and fabrication facility. With all the benefits of a small shop, and all the capabilities of a large facility, HF create the highest quality design and fabrication work in the industry.

Daniel Hester, Founder

Daniel is our founding engineer. He’s got a degree in Civil Engineering, and an extensive background in heavy construction. His experience managing projects like the St. Louis Bridge in Mississippi, and the San Francisco Bay Bridge Self-Anchored Suspension Span afforded him intimate knowledge in heavy lifting and rigging design, and maybe most importantly, gave him an understanding of the importance of effective and efficient project management.

Daniel’s innovative designs have proven valuable to clients all over the world – from the tech industry, to construction companies, manufacturers, retailers, and beyond. Everything he creates improves workflow, and decreases safety risk and human error. He is passionate about building products that deliver clients the intangible value of custom designed solutions that are durable enough to last a lifetime.

Daniel’s got a bad ass wife, Candace, who can definitely lift more than you can, a 3-year-old son, Chance, that can already drive a forklift and operate our overhead cranes, and a Doberman, Hayden, who acts as our shop foreman and security system.
