Ge Hughes Construction Co operates their own structural steel fabrication shop in-house at their Lobethal base, allowing them to custom-fabricate steel components for both residential and commercial projects. They handle everything from structural beams and columns for new builds to custom steel frames and supports.

Can Ge Hughes Construction Co handle both the concrete foundations and the full build in one contract?

They pour concrete foundation slabs and then continue with the full construction, including structural steel work, fit-outs, and even custom cabinetry.
