New Construction
New Construction Across the Southeast
Ground-up hotel, multi-family, and commercial builds — from site work and foundations through certificate of occupancy, managed by a Southeast builder with seven decades of groundbreakings behind it.
Who We Are
From a Cleared Site to a Certificate of Occupancy
Breaking ground on a new building means committing to a schedule, a budget, and an opening date before the first shovel hits dirt. Since 1955, Pinkerton & Laws has delivered more than 400 new construction projects across the Southeast — hotels, multi-family communities, assisted living facilities, and commercial buildings built from the ground up.
New construction lives or dies in pre-construction. Our team models the cost, reviews constructability, and value-engineers the scope before mobilization, so the baseline schedule we hand you on day one is realistic — not aspirational. See the new construction projects we have delivered and broken ground on across the region.
From our Atlanta headquarters and Orlando office, we manage new construction across Georgia, Florida, Alabama, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia. If you are weighing delivery methods, our general contractor overview explains how we structure the build from pre-construction through certificate of occupancy.
What We Do
What New Construction Involves With Us
Site Development & Earthwork
Clearing, grading, underground utilities, and foundation excavation coordinated under one contract so site work and vertical construction never fall through the cracks.
Structural Construction
Concrete pours, steel erection, and masonry work managed with daily quality checkpoints and a superintendent on site from the first footing to the final deck.
Building Envelope Installation
Exterior wall systems, roofing, and waterproofing installed to manufacturer details — a focus of our internal quality program to prevent moisture and air infiltration.
MEP Rough-In & Coordination
Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing trades coordinated during the structural phase so rough-in aligns with the critical path instead of bottlenecking it.
Interior Build-Out
Framing, drywall, finishes, and FF&E installation executed to brand standard or owner specification, with franchisor inspections scheduled into the closeout plan.
Commissioning & Certificate of Occupancy
Systems testing, final inspections, and certificate of occupancy secured so you can open on the date your financing, franchise agreement, and pre-opening plan depend on.

How We Work
How We Deliver a Ground-Up Build
Site Assessment & Pre-Construction
We evaluate site conditions, review the design for constructability, model the cost, and build a critical-path schedule before mobilization so the baseline is grounded in reality.
Site Work & Foundations
Clearing, grading, underground utilities, and foundation excavation kick off with a superintendent on site from day one and daily quality control checkpoints on every pour.
Structural Erection
Concrete, steel, or masonry structure rises with coordinated MEP rough-in, keeping the critical path moving and the envelope ready for installation on schedule.
Envelope & MEP Rough-In
Exterior wall systems, roofing, and waterproofing go on while mechanical, electrical, and plumbing trades rough in behind them — all tracked against the baseline schedule.
Interior Fit-Out & Closeout
Framing, drywall, finishes, and FF&E installation complete the build, followed by systems testing, final inspections, and certificate of occupancy so you can open on time.
