What we build
From the slab to the ridge cap, one contractor handles the structure. Pre-engineered metal buildings are our specialty, and we bring the same crews to the work around them.
Rigid frames, purlins, girts, wall and roof panels, engineered for your site and your use, then erected by our crews. Pre-engineering gets you a building that goes up fast and holds its value, with custom engineering where your project needs it.
General construction for businesses and industry, from a single facility to a program of sites.
Structural steel erection, handled by crews who work in steel every day.
Footings, foundations and slabs, poured to carry the building that goes on top of them.
New metal wall and roof systems for existing buildings, to stop leaks, update the look and extend the building's life.
If your project doesn't fit neatly in a box, call us. We'll tell you straight whether we're the right builder for it.
Two ways to build
Some clients need a single building made for one site. Others roll out the same building in town after town. We do both.
A customized building engineered around your site, your loads and how you'll use the space. Pre-engineering keeps the cost down, and custom engineering covers the parts that make your building yours.
A standardized building repeated across multiple locations, so each site looks the same, performs the same and goes up faster than the last.
What we build around
Every project comes down to how well it's built, what it costs and when you can move in. We plan the job around all three from the first conversation.
Engineered systems, erected by experienced union crews, built to last.
Pre-engineering puts your money into the building, with engineering balanced for cost and reliability.
Prefabricated components arrive ready to erect, so your building is finished sooner.
