Frequently Asked Questions

Call us at (706) 809-0808 or fill out the form on our contact page. Describe the project -- location, scope, timeline, and budget range if you have one. We will respond within 24 hours with an initial assessment and a recommendation for next steps. No RFP is required to start a conversation.

No. Many of our projects begin without plans. As a design-build contractor with PE-licensed engineers on staff, we can develop the engineering and design from a concept sketch, a site plan, or even a verbal description. If you already have plans, we will review them and provide a proposal. Either path works.

Design-build is a project delivery method where one firm handles both design and construction under a single contract. You get one team, one point of accountability, and a streamlined process. Research from the Construction Industry Institute shows design-build delivers projects 33.5% faster and with 6.1% lower costs than traditional design-bid-build.

Timelines vary significantly by scope. A 50-acre mass grading project might take 8-12 weeks. A powered shell data center can take 12-18 months. A full turnkey industrial facility runs 18-24 months from design through commissioning. We provide detailed schedules during preconstruction and compress timelines through self-perform capabilities and parallel-path engineering.

Construction costs depend on scope, site conditions, and market factors. We provide detailed cost estimates during preconstruction with open-book transparency on every line item. Our self-perform model eliminates general contractor markups on civil, concrete, and steel scopes -- which typically represent 40-60% of total project cost.

Self-perform means we use our own crews, our own equipment, and our own supervision to execute critical scopes of work -- including mass grading, earthwork, underground utilities, concrete foundations, and steel erection. We do not subcontract our core competencies. This gives us direct control over quality, schedule, and cost on the work that matters most.

We are headquartered in Newnan, Georgia -- 30 miles south of Atlanta. We serve the entire state of Georgia and the broader Southeast region, including Alabama, Tennessee, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Florida. Much of our current work tracks the I-85 and I-20 growth corridors around Atlanta, where data center, power, and industrial demand remains unusually strong.

Yes. We maintain PE-licensed professional engineers on staff, supported by leadership with engineering, manufacturing, and power-generation backgrounds. Stamped structural calculations, foundation design, and construction engineering are handled close to the field -- not handed to a disconnected outside reviewer. Engineering-led delivery is core to how we work.

We are built for mid-market through mega-scale infrastructure projects. Our typical project ranges from $5 million to $500+ million. We have the equipment fleet and crew depth for 500+ acre sites and 150,000+ cubic yard concrete pours. Our sweet spot is the gap between small local contractors and large national firms.

We maintain a fleet of heavy equipment including dozers, excavators, motor graders, articulated haul trucks, concrete pumps, cranes, and GPS-guided machine control systems. Owning our equipment means no rental markups, no availability delays, and direct maintenance control.

Data center construction is one of our primary markets. According to CBRE's latest year-end 2025 market data, metro Atlanta reached 1,459.2 MW of inventory with 2,076 MW under construction and only 2% vacancy. We provide hyperscale campus civil work, powered-shell construction, substation infrastructure, and PE-led mechanical and electrical coordination.

We build the civil and structural infrastructure for solar farms, battery energy storage systems (BESS), substations, and gas-fired power generation facilities. Georgia Power's approved 2025 IRP projects about 8,500 MW of load growth over the next six years, and subsequent 2025 certification filings sought about 9,900 MW of new resources. That creates a substantial construction runway for power infrastructure in Georgia.

We build manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, warehouses, and process plants. Georgia's official FY2025 economic development results included 423 facility expansions and new locations, more than $26.3 billion in investment, and 23,200 committed jobs. That demand shows up in ready-site work, utilities, foundations, and fast-track building delivery statewide.

In traditional design-bid-build, the owner hires an architect, waits for complete drawings, then solicits bids from contractors. Design-build collapses this into a single contract. Engineering begins immediately, construction starts before all design is finalized through phased permitting, and the team that designs the project is the same team that builds it.

Yes. We manage the full permitting process including local building permits, grading permits, NPDES stormwater permits, EPD erosion and sediment control plans, and fire marshal approvals.

We maintain a rigorous quality control program with internal inspection checkpoints at every phase -- from subgrade preparation and reinforcing steel placement through concrete pours and structural connections.

Yes. All work carries standard construction warranties covering workmanship and materials. Our self-perform model means warranty claims are resolved directly by the crews who built it -- no finger-pointing between subcontractors.
