Drake Construction

Drake Construction Company has been a cornerstone in the growth and rebirth of Cleveland and northeast Ohio since 1954. We have consistently demonstrated our commitment to integrity, experience, and excellence in every project we undertake. From new state-of-the-art office complexes to historic renovations, our skilled craftsmanship and dedication to quality are evident throughout the city.

We are an independent general contractor, and we have earned a reputation for completing every project with the highest quality materials and workmanship. Our team of experienced professionals, including our skilled employees and qualified subcontractors, ensures that each project meets our high standards.

Drake Construction Company is owned by a few of its employees, who are committed to maintaining our position as an industry leader. Our management team sets the standards for the company, and our skilled employees follow through and provide the workmanship that we are known for producing. We also employ qualified subcontractors, most of whom have established long-term working relationships with us. This allows projects to be completed by skilled craftsmen representing a specific trade - just one more benefit we provide to our clients.

We have been recognized for our outstanding work, including awards from the U.S. Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration as an Elite Contractor, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development in collaboration with the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the Cleveland Restoration Society.

Services

Drake Construction Company offers a variety of services designed to meet the unique needs of our clients. These include:

Preconstruction Services

We understand that each project has its own unique challenges and requirements. Whether it is working off schematic design, budget restraints, or scheduling restraints, we have the capability to put a plan together that will maximize effectiveness to provide the best possible project based on the client's needs.

Our estimating staff is dedicated to making the budgeting process as transparent and client-focused as possible to make each project a success from start to finish. We work closely with our clients to understand their budgetary constraints and ensure that we stay within those limits while still delivering a high-quality project.

We also employ our own laborers and carpenters, which allows us flexibility and overall control of each project. We remain committed to the local carpenter and laborer unions, which have provided trained and qualified trade workers. Our staff works to maintain a clean and organized work site, which allows us to work in controlled areas as well as active retail space with little to no disruption of the areas around the site.

General Contracting

Our experience extends from environmentally controlled areas to occupied retail to occupied multi-family housing. We provide a diverse and agile project staff that can navigate the multitude of challenges that may present themselves. We realize that we are only as good as the trades that we partner with on our projects. We attempt to maintain excellent working relationships with the trades that we employ. This allows a positive working environment on each project and creates a constructive and open line of communication from owner to field.
