Why government and public works construction works the way it does in St. Augustine
About St. Augustine, FL. St. Augustine is the oldest continuously occupied European-founded settlement in the United States, set on Florida's northeast coast with a historic core dominated by colonial-era fabric, the Castillo de San Marcos, and a tightly preserved street grid. Surrounding the historic center are coastal residential neighborhoods, gated communities, and a steady second-home market drawn to the beach and historic character.
What it means for government and public works construction. St. Johns County and the City of St. Augustine both apply, and the Historic Architectural Review Board governs exterior work in the historic district under some of the strictest preservation rules in the state — material, fenestration, and roof-form decisions are reviewed in detail. Coastal parcels work under Florida Building Code with hurricane-exposure provisions, FEMA flood-zone elevations, and St. Johns County coastal construction rules. Typical work is sympathetic remodels of historic homes, custom coastal homes in surrounding gated communities, and boutique hospitality work near the historic core.

What Affects the Price
Every job is different. Here's what we look at when we put together your estimate — so there are no surprises on job day.

Bonding requirement — bid, performance, and payment bonds at full contract value
Davis-Bacon prevailing-wage requirements and reporting coordination
DBE / MBE / WBE / VOSB participation goals and tier coordination
Specialty scope — secure facility, MEP redundancy, ADA upgrade, hazmat abatement
Phasing for occupied facilities (schools in session, courts in session, hospitals)
We don't quote over the phone. Every estimate is done on-site because that's the only way to give you a number you can count on. No ballparks, no surprises.
Our Process
How We Approach
Government and Public Works Construction
Solicitation Review & Bid Strategy
We review the IFB, RFP, or RFQ with the same discipline a federal contracting officer reads it. Bid bond, performance bond, payment bond, Davis-Bacon prevailing wage, SAM.gov registration, DBE participation goals — every requirement walked through before we no-bid or commit. Veteran-led, NASCLA Unlimited Building GC, $1M+ surety capacity standing.

Pre-Con, Compliance & Mobilization
Public-sector pre-con is documentation by default — submittals, schedule of values, EEO, OSHA site safety plan, and the inspection cycle stitched in. We mobilize on the contract date, not three weeks late. Same operational discipline that earned our 7 Brew national approval.

Build, Inspect, Close Out Clean
Public projects close out on the documentation as much as the work. As-builts, O&M manuals, warranty letters, lien releases, prevailing-wage documentation, and punch list to zero — assembled the way a contracting officer expects so retainage releases on time and your next bid evaluation rates us 'responsible' the day we walk off site.
