At Burke Construction Group we don’t just build quality projects – we build lasting relationships.
Integrity, Ingenuity, Initiative
That’s what you can expect from BCG. When we make a promise, we keep it. We pride ourselves on finding innovative, creative solutions unique to each project. And we take a leadership role, proactively participating in design discussions and directing all critical elements of construction. BCG has the depth of resources to support the proposed project team, yet, our company is still small enough to assure that everyone knows each other and peers collaborate with one another. Minimal layers assure that senior management is involved in all projects and that decisions are made quickly. Over the course of hundreds of successfully completed projects, we have developed a clearly defined baseline level of quality both in how we approach and manage the project and the final product.
A Balanced Approach
Over the course of hundreds of successfully completed projects, we have developed a clearly defined baseline level of quality both in how we approach and manage the project and the final product. Every staff member is well versed in our standards and clearly communicates our expectations to the subcontractors prior to construction. While established processes create the framework for our interactions, project managers and superintendents have the authority to make decisions in the field to address the myriad of variables that make up a construction project. The senior management team is actively involved in every project and maintains direct communication that expedites critical decisions, making us more responsive to your needs. We have invested heavily in the industry’s top talent, ensuring the successful completion of virtually every type and size of project.
