Construction Division

Performs earthmoving, excavating, and filling operations, builds golf courses, roads, and utility infrastructures, dredges waterways and constructs deep-water piers and marinas, primarily in the Caribbean. We have historically provided these land development services to both private enterprises and government agencies. Our project managers have substantial experience in land and marine development. Our equipment is strategically situated within the Caribbean which allows us to mobilize quickly and cost-effectively. While these characteristics allow us to bid competitively, our ability to mobilize quickly can sometimes cause us to incur higher expenses during periods of down time.
