Construction Services
Our
philosophy is to bring strong planning, scheduling and project management to
every project. We put extra effort into training and development of our
personnel and we make sure they have well maintained equipment that is properly
suited for the job at hand. Finally, nothing is more important than the safety
of our workforce and the public (our safety program is discussed in more detail
elsewhere on this website). Each of these components are important so that (1)
we are capable of successfully completing our projects in a manner that exceeds
the expectation of our clients and (2) we are capable of recognizing and
overcoming unforeseen obstacles that might arise on the project.
The primary business of The Scruggs Company
is heavy construction and site work. We pursue projects in various sizes
including projects billing less than $10,000 up to projects billing over
$120,000,000. Depending on the type of project, the geographic location might be
anywhere in the Southeastern United States. On a typical project, we provide all
sitework services with in-house forces including clearing, grading, storm
drainage, water/sanitary and paving. Normally, we are involved as a prime
contractor, contracting directly with the owner, but we also work as a
subcontractor on some projects.
Private/Commercial Projects:
These projects include parking lots, subdivisions and industrial facilities that
are typically located in South Georgia/North Florida (i.e. and within a 75-mile
radius of our asphalt plants located at Valdosta, Thomasville or Lenox).
Typical clients include owners, general contractors and Industrial
Authorities. We work closely with our clients from concept to construction to
arrive at solutions which meet quality standards, time constraints and project
budgets.
Roadway/State
Routes:
Most of this work originates from local and state government agencies.
Projects include asphalt roadway resurfacing, intersection improvements, passing
lanes, reconstruction and paving of dirt roads, major road
widening/improvements and new road construction. The ability to consistently
meet or exceed DOT quality standards is required, as is an understanding of and
dedication to meeting all regulatory clauses and requirements of governmental
contracts.
Airfield/Interstate:
These are usually the largest and sometimes most complex projects. Work on
airfields and interstate highways require extensive planning and preparation
before the work begins. Attention to quality control is a must as is
special
consideration to safety for both workers and the public. Many of these projects
involve heavy concrete paving and the geographic area includes all of the
Southeastern United States. Typical clients are municipal airports, the
Department of Defense and other governmental agencies.
Support Facilities and Equipment:
We own and operate three asphalt plants, two portable concrete plants, a fleet
of about 50 heavy trucks and numerous grading/paving equipment units.
Maintenance and repairs are handled in-house; service records and preventative
maintenance schedules are electronically tracked for each individual vehicle and
equipment unit. Our on site shop provides ample working area as well as storage
for supplies and office space for various personnel.
The Scruggs Company has the resources, the expertise and the experience that
will make us an important asset to your project team.
