Design-Build
We hire the architects and engineers
Most of our work is design-build. That means you hire one company and we bring the architect, the engineers and the field crews with us. You are not refereeing between a design team and a builder who never spoke until the drawings were finished.
Because we price the job while it is still being drawn, the surprises show up on paper instead of in the field. Owners save money on change orders and save months on the calendar. If something in the design will not build cleanly, our superintendents say so before it gets bid.
One contract. One schedule. One phone number when you need an answer.

Featured Project
Better Baseball
A specialty athletic facility on Highway 99 that did not exist anywhere in Texas before we built it, and still does not exist anywhere else in the country. Purpose built for training, from the slab up.
The sign went up and the project went viral within three hours. That is the kind of work owners bring to us: the build nobody else wants to price.

What owners say
“Boatman Construction handled the design and the build. We had one team to call and the schedule never got away from us.”
“They told us what things would cost up front and then they held to it. That is rare in this business.”
“The crews were respectful, the site stayed clean and the quality shows in the finished building.”
From the Field
Job site notes
Field NoteWhy design-build beats bid-build on a tight schedule
When the architect, the engineer and the builder answer to the same team, drawings get built the way they were drawn.
Read the noteOn SiteWhat a tilt wall pour morning actually looks like
Panels are cast flat on the slab, cured, then stood in a single choreographed day with a crane and a lot of planning.
Read the noteSafetyToolbox talks: the five minutes that prevent the incident
Every crew starts the day with a hazard walk. Safety, quality and productivity move together or not at all.
