A lot of companies tell you about their great reputation. At Universal, we tell you… then we back it up.

Reputation - "… In our 40 plus years relationship with this firm (Universal), we have never received even so much as a phone call complaining of any defect in workmanship or failure to meet financial obligations. …(The surety company handling Universal's account) has never failed to support Universal Construction Company, Inc. on any of their bonding requests…. Their capabilities, integrity and cooperation with clients/architects places them among the nation's finest general and construction management contractors."

Projects - Universal has provided construction services for over $3 billion dollars of commercial, institutional, industrial and historical projects throughout the continental United States. We have specialized in technically complex and performance-oriented projects. This expertise translates well for both demanding and not-so-demanding projects. 

We honestly believe we have the most talented construction team in the business; many are the third, fourth and fifth generation with Universal. Let us put that expertise to work for you.

Services - Universal operates as a full-service commercial construction firm with the ability to self-perform much of its work. Services offered include construction management, program management, general contracting, design-build, pre-construction consulting and construction forensics.

We're often asked which project delivery system or contractual approach we recommend. Because there are weighty nuances to each, you should be well informed. Most importantly, there is a direct correlation between getting the construction experts involved early in your project and having a good construction experience.

Early involvement with construction 
experts yields superior results.

The more time you allow Universal to analyze, understand, consult, advise and plan - the greater the opportunity you will have to achieve your cost, quality and timing objectives. And the greater the opportunity to avoid change orders, cost overruns and scheduling delays.


We have written two companion "white papers" on this subject that we hope are informative. We urge you to take a moment to read them.
