General Construction

Skepton Construction is a full-service general contracting firm performing site development, new building construction, renovations, and alterations.

We’re one of the few self-performing general contractors working directly for the owner, overseeing subcontractors and self-performing our own work – giving us greater control over scheduling for the duration of the project.

As a self-performing contractor, we typically build 10 to 50 percent of our projects with our own forces. We employ over 50 full-time, highly skilled tradesmen who are readily available to self-perform a multitude of construction tasks. Relying on our forces results in a quicker response, greater flexibility, and increased productivity – often allowing us to work ahead of schedule.

The onsite personnel of Skepton had done a great job in keeping all parties up to date throughout the construction process. The project workmanship has been excellent and all issues have been addressed in a timely manner. They are very accessible from their on-site team all the way to their senior leadership. They are true problem solvers.

During my last few years at Cedar Crest College we did many large and small construction projects. Skepton was the lead on each of them and every one of them was on time and below budget! These folks are the best construction firm I have worked with in my 20 years in higher education.

The quality, attention, exceeded our expectations, and of course, the project was delivered ahead of schedule and under budget.

Arthur M. BerkowitzPresident, JE Berkowitz, LP

Everyone involved understood from the start that this project was going to challenge each of the contractors to perform at their highest level in order to meet the schedule and regulation limitations. Skepton Construction met all of these challenges.

William R. Gretton IIIAssistant Superintendent of Operations, Centennial School District

Skepton not only brought industry knowledge to the table, but they carefully listened to what we wanted and communicated with clarity and frequency throughout the entire project process. They had a high focus on quality, safety and on delivering our facility at the right price without sacrificing our wants and needs. At the end, we were on time and below budget. Our company owner, Mr. Jacquet, noted that this is the nicest building in our worldwide group.

Lionel MeleoPresident of North American Operations, Jacquet Metals

My sincere appreciation to all at Skepton Construction for a job well done. Never doubted my decision to drop this project in your lap. Quality of work, communications, integrity and honesty, were, as expected, always on display.

Bill GattiGatti-Morrison Construction Service, Inc.

Throughout our projects: Palmer Elementary School, Cheston Elementary School and the renovation of Cottingham Stadium, Skepton exhibited outstanding leadership, attention to detail, and a dedication to safety and quality. Their ability to effectively communicate with our team and adapt to evolving challenges made them an invaluable partner in these developments. I wholeheartedly recommend Skepton for any future projects. Their professionalism and commitment to excellence will undoubtedly be an asset to any undertaking.
