Modern Contractors.
Old School Builders.
Salacia Construction is a hands-on commercial builder serving owners across the southeast.
When others manage, we build.
In today's construction industry, many “contractors” are really construction managers. At Salacia Construction, we still put tools to work. Our core team come from big-job experience, but we prefer to stay close to the work.
With in house fabrication and self-perform capabilities for sitework, concrete, masonry, miscellanous steel and PEMB erection our projects have tighter controls over safety, quality and schedule - our projects finish safer, faster and with fewer surprises.
Craftsmanship
Our team doesn't just coordinate subcontractors—we perform key trades ourselves. From sitework to conrete, steel and masonry, we keep the foundation of your project in-house. This isn't just about pride in our work—it's about reliably delivering quality you can see.
Field-First Management
When we do the work ourselves, safety stays in our hands. Our Superintendents are jobsite-present with old school skills backed by modern tools for maintaining safety, quality and schedule, creating environments for your project to thrive and advance without compromise.
Owners’ Perspective
As developers and builders, our team leverages cutting-edge management systems while maintaining a physical presence where it matters most—on your jobsite. We track every detail so you stay informed, while executing with the precision that only comes from being there.
