We hired Brogdon Builders to be our general contractor for our home remodeling project in 2021. We interviewed five different GC’s before selecting Brogdon and were impressed by their work and responsiveness before being awarded the job. They were the most expensive of the GC’s, however, the quality of work, professionalism, and responsiveness before, during, and after the completion of the project was worth it. They provided a fairly accurate estimate of our total cost even though there were a few change orders. Brogdon was on site almost every time we stopped by and was available to meet with us if needed. The sub-contractors they hired were very professional and the quality of their workmanship was second to none, the carpenter and tile installer are true artists and have the ability to foresee an issue in the design before installation. We would absolutely recommend Brogdon Builders and will use them again for our next house project.

Brogdon Builders Review In mid August 2021, we finally began a complete gut and renovation of our kitchen that we’d been designing for more than 8 months. Along with our designer we interviewed multiple contractors and in April 2021 we selected Brogdon Builders to bring our dream kitchen to fruition. Steve Brogdon, our general contractor, seamlessly coordinated multiple moving parts including his own trades as well as our design team, independent floor and tile installer, and cabinet installer (not his typical work model), demonstrating a professional flexibility that assisted in making this anxious period much less so. Steve can “read a room” and whenever he sensed stress levels rising, he jumped in to assuage any of our concerns…and not just with smoke and mirrors but by taking positive steps to keep the project on track. The pandemic wreaked havoc with logistics, appliance delivery delays and subcontractors’ availability but Steve deftly led the team and persevered through these roadblocks. He held hands when needed and kept us focused on the present with a goal toward the finish line. Steve arranged for timely inspections at each critical milestone, all of which passed on initial inspection. He kept us informed with frequent site visits, phone calls, and text messages. The finished project is exactly as we envisioned it, with all equipment functioning perfectly, exceptional fit and finish, and on budget. Steve’s pleasant demeanor, expertise and uncanny ability to explain technical issues in a language we could understand helped us to make good decisions throughout the process. Steve’s team was meticulously tidy and showed great respect for the “unaffected” portions of the house for the duration of the industrial period. He covered all of our floors with ram board (not just paper) for added protection, covered non-removable furnishings and appliances in plastic and isolated rooms with heavy duty zippered plastic openings. These are expensive added touches that really make the difference in customer satisfaction. On the administration side, Cortney Brogdon provided regular updates on the budget and accurate accounting of the project’s progress. Invoicing was timely, always in accordance with the contract terms, and there were NO surprises. We would not hesitate to select Brogdon Builders again for any future work, and we most strongly recommend them for your project.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with the Brogdon Builders team on our major home renovation. It was a large project and we were building our forever home, so we are very thankful we paired with a builder that was not only up for the job, but who obviously takes great pride in their work and cares deeply about the happiness of their clients. From beginning to end, we were happy with the process and truly enjoyed working with them. They helped us gain a great deal of knowledge, make careful decisions about our product/finish choices, and listened carefully to all the specifics about our requests. We highly recommend using Brogdon Builders for any General Contracting needs. They made our dream home a reality and we are living in pure bliss now!

Steve the contractor has been kind, good natured and responsive. We had minimum problems with very complex dental office conversion from a regular medical office. Even though he did not have the many dental office experience prior to ours, he brought right subcontractors to do the work, and every step of the way he made sure that we have what we needed. Thank you, you are the best.

Brogden Builders did an incredible job replacing an exterior wall with a custom sliding glass door and porch add on! They made the whole process from initial meeting to completed project easy and worry free, they worked through all of the historical society requirements on top of our own! My family highly recommends them for any project!

Hiring Brogdon Builders for my new office build-out was the best decision I could have made for my new business. They are professional, courteous, and completed the job on time and within my budget. I cannot recommend Clayton and his team highly enough!

Clayton was recommended by a previous contractor who was sponsoring Clayton. Clayton did a total master bathroom remodel and numerous other projects to include structural changes. He and his crew did an outstanding job. They all were knowledgeable, easy to work with and accomplished my project in a timely manner. Clayton provided guidance, vendor options and made recommendations on the design of the master bathroom remodel. I highly recommend Clayton for any project you need to have done.

Local Expertise

We know how Northeast Florida gets built

Building in Northeast Florida is not the same as building anywhere else, and knowing the region is what keeps a project on schedule. Brogdon Builders works across the area every day and plans for challenges that may arise. Jacksonville Beach, Neptune Beach, and Atlantic Beach sit within about 20 miles of each other, yet each runs its own building department with its own forms and requirements. Orange Park permits through Orange Park, not the City of Jacksonville. Cross a county line and the rules change again.

That patchwork is where projects stall when a builder does not know the ground. After 10+ years navigating it, we know the cities, counties, and small towns, their offices and their people, and what each one expects before a form is submitted. It is a large part of why out-of-town developers partner with us: they know the building, and we know the jurisdiction.

We build throughout the region

Our work reaches well beyond our home counties. We have built and permitted in communities across the First Coast and down into Volusia and Flagler, including the Town of Callahan in Nassau, Palm Coast, Port Orange, and the Daytona area. Wherever a project takes us, we plan the permitting path first, so approvals keep the schedule moving instead of holding it up.

We build for local ground conditions

Building here is less about wind and rain and more about what is under your feet. Sandy soils, clay, and wetlands each change how a site has to be prepared, and a plan that ignores them finds trouble in the field. Our rainfall also swings hard from season to season, and we schedule around it. After a decade of building on First Coast ground, we plan for the soil and the seasons from the start.

Northeast Florida’s ground-up commercial builder

We build commercial properties from the ground up across Jacksonville and Northeast Florida. We manage the full build, from site work and foundations through the structure, systems, and final finishes, and hand over a finished building ready to open. Our projects range from 1,400 square-foot build-outs to 200,000 square-foot commercial warehouses, with no ceiling on the size of the work we take on.

Capabilities

What we build

No two commercial projects are the same, so we do not sell a fixed package. We bring the right team, skilled trades, and plan to each project based on what it needs and where it is being built. Whatever the building type, we manage every phase and every trade, from the first site meeting to the final walkthrough.

Across Jacksonville and the surrounding counties, owners hire us for:

01. Medical and healthcare facilities, including dental and specialty spaces

02. Industrial and warehouse buildings, including large-format and distribution space

03. Retail centers, storefronts, and multi-tenant spaces

04. Restaurants and franchise locations built to brand standards

05. Office and professional buildings

06. Government, public, and community projects

THE Brief

How we’re different

Challenges & Solutions

We show real projects, not slogans

You can see exactly what we have built, where, and at what size, from an amenity center in St. Augustine to a 200,000-square-foot make-ready in Jacksonville.

We deliver on schedule, and we can prove it

Our planning and cost tracking are built to protect your schedule and limit change orders. We delivered the Clay County Tax Collector’s Office a full month ahead of schedule, which let the office open to the public sooner than planned.

Small-business care, large-project capability

We bring the personal attention of a family company with the systems and precision that multi-million-dollar projects require.

Our Process

How we build, from permit to punch list

01

Pre-construction and planning

We verify existing conditions, review construction documents, and work with your design team to align scope, budget, and intent before work begins. We build a detailed budget and look for cost saving alternatives early, so cost and schedule issues surface on paper instead of in the field.

02

Coordination and scheduling

We hold weekly coordination meetings and review a seven-day look-ahead that sequences every task and trade, so materials, equipment, and crews stay aligned with your building’s requirements.

03

Construction and communication

We manage every trade, inspection, and phase, tracking progress in Procore with real-time updates and documented requests for information, submittals, change orders, and monthly reports. Owners always have a clear view of progress, performance, and cost.

04

Close-out and hand-over

We complete final finishes, walk the project with you, and hand over a finished, code-ready building prepared for occupancy.

Delivery Methods

What delivery methods does Brogdon offer?

We deliver projects through Design-Bid-Build, Design-Build, and Construction Management. We help owners choose the right method during pre-construction based on budget, schedule, and goals, and we structure pricing to fit the project, including a guaranteed maximum price where it makes sense.

Design-Build

One contract covers both design and construction under a single accountable team. This shortens timelines and reduces change orders, and it fits owners who want one point of contact from concept to completion.

Construction Manager

We act as construction manager and commit to a guaranteed maximum price, giving owners cost certainty while we manage the build. We have delivered multiple projects under this method.

Design-Bid-Build

The traditional method, where design is completed first and then bid for construction, offering clear separation between design and build phases.

Learn more about planning and single-contract delivery on our Design-Build and Pre-Construction page. For work inside an existing building, see Interior Build-Outs.
