Preconstruction
A strong foundation is crucial not just for buildings, but for construction planning too. Through our strategic and meticulous Preconstruction process, we outline and analyze every project from conception to completion to pave the way for success.
Before we break ground on any project, our experienced Preconstruction team collaborates to develop a plan that mitigates risk, minimizes costs and reduces schedule impacts. Our solutions-oriented approach ensures we’re able to anticipate problems before they happen and customize solutions to accommodate ever-changing issues in an evolving market.

Renovation + Adaptive Reuse
From adaptive reuse to additions and expansions, our construction capabilities, Historic Preservation expertise, and commitment to sustainability combine to bring old spaces back to life.
Renovations can be tricky. They require adapting designs to fit the constraints of existing structures, often involve occupied buildings and high-traffic areas, and tend to bring unexpected conditions and challenges. But with a solutions-oriented approach backed by decades of experience, our teams are equipped to:
- Carefully plan staging and logistics to accommodate existing constraints, ensuring access and construction flow are efficient
- Utilize detailed surveys and 3D modeling to anticipate and address challenges within the structure
- Strategically navigate unexpected issues including those involving structure, envelope, and MEP systems, to mitigate added time and costs
- Expertly update older buildings to meet modern codes, from ADA compliance to energy efficiency standards
- Provide clients with cost-effective solutions for necessary upgrades while preserving the integrity of the original structure
- Minimize disruptions through phased scheduling, off-hour construction, and noise/dust mitigation strategies
- Maintain open communication with clients and occupants to address concerns and ensure smooth operations during renovations
I have been in the industry for over 40 years and in that time worked with hundreds of construction companies both large and small and I would put HGC in the top five of that list. I have found them to be open, honest, and fair, which is rare to find in our industry.

Repairing and restoring historic structures is a complex process with a lot at stake, but we thrive where challenging environments meet high expectations. We are continually called upon to lead these types of projects because of our attention to detail and ability to creatively problem solve while working within the tight confines of an urban environment. From leveraging state and federal historic tax credits to meeting the regulatory demands of historic designating entities, our historic preservation expertise is all-encompassing and flexes to fit the needs of each unique structure.

I always had the sense that the HGC leadership and their staff handled our project, the restoration of the Taft Museum of Art, as if it was their very own home. They demonstrated care of the structure and understood its historic importance. There were lots and lots of hoops for HGC to jump through to get the project right. One example: You must perform all work on this project without causing vibrations — no drills or anything that could damage the murals that are painted directly on 200-year-old plaster! I am pleased to share that they did a magnificent job.

New Construction
Building from the ground up is one of the things we do best. We navigate the complexities that come with new builds with the expertise that comes with nearly 100 years in the business.
From zoning and permitting to site preparation and collaboration, our specialties span the complicated landscape of new construction. We pull on decades of experience to:
- Assist in securing appropriate zoning and building permits, meeting stringent regulations that often vary by project and location, through a rigorous Preconstruction process designed to streamline approvals and minimize delays
- Manage extensive site preparation, including land clearing, excavation and utility setup
- Conduct thorough site assessments to boost efficiencies, anticipate challenges, and create strategies that reduce delays and manage costs
- Collaborate with designers and engineers from day one to optimize designs for code compliance, safety and efficiency and incorporate the latest standards
I've been involved with other construction projects in the past, and I don't ever recall a project running as smoothly as ours did. I contribute that to the consistent open and honest dialogue and communication on a daily basis. No question was off limits and HGC made sure we felt comfortable every step of the way.
