Company History
TLM One Inc. was founded in 1998 in Los Angeles, California, by brothers Trinidad and Eduardo Martinez, originally operating as TLM Petro Labor Force. With extensive industry experience gained since 1986 working for separate firms, they developed comprehensive expertise across all facets of petroleum retail construction—including underground storage tank (UST) removal and installation, fuel piping, dispenser installation, monitoring systems, electrical work, and project management. Leveraging this deep knowledge, the brothers launched their own company, successfully growing it into a multi-million-dollar construction firm. Today, TLM One Inc. proudly serves major clients such as Circle K, BP, Jacksons Food Stores, as well as numerous independent ARCO, Chevron, Mobil, and 76 dealers, delivering high-quality retail station and convenience store construction.
TLM One is proud to be recognized as an industry leader in petroleum retail construction, built on a foundation of deep expertise and strong leadership from founders Trinidad and Eduardo Martinez. Their vision has fostered a company culture centered on experience, safety, and craftsmanship. Collectively, our five core Supervisors bring over 150 years of hands-on experience, while our five Project Managers contribute an additional 100 years of industry knowledge. Together, they expertly lead a skilled workforce comprising electricians, pipefitters, ICC technicians, mechanical technicians, designated operators, and general laborers—each playing a vital role in consistently delivering projects to the highest standards. As a specialty contractor, TLM One’s proven track record and unwavering commitment to quality have earned the trust of our clients. This trust has fueled our growth predominantly through word-of-mouth referrals, reflecting our professionalism and dedication without reliance on advertising.
