Neagley & Chase Construction

What Neagley & Chase Construction does

Neagley & Chase Construction Company (NCC) is a privately held commercial general contractor and construction manager founded in 1984 in Burlington, Vermont and now headquartered in South Burlington. The firm delivers pre-construction, construction management, design-build, special projects, and real estate development services across Vermont, the Upper Valley of New Hampshire, and northern New York, serving enterprise, institutional, government, and nonprofit clients in education, manufacturing, food and beverage, healthcare, housing, office/commercial, and water/wastewater sectors. Named customers include GlobalFoundries, UVM Health Network, Champlain College, Frito-Lay, City of Burlington, the US Forest Service, and a cluster of affordable housing developers including Evernorth, Champlain Housing Trust, Downstreet Housing, and Windham & Windsor Housing Trust.

The company's technical differentiation centers on high-performance building envelope construction, with blower door test results as low as 0.016 CFM50/SF on Fox Run Housing (roughly three times tighter than the Passive House standard of 0.05) and 0.024 CFM50/SF on Vergennes Community Housing. NCC delivered its first net-zero-ready building (Vermont Public Radio headquarters) in 2016 and continues to invest in Passive House–class envelope execution, historic preservation craftsmanship (Shelburne Community Center, Fletcher Free Library Carnegie Wing, McDonald Hall), and specialized regulatory environments (USDA-inspected facilities, healthcare). A dedicated Special Projects Team supports manufacturing clients with production-continuity construction, and the firm maintains a formal PE Development Program that has graduated 19% of the current team.

Revenue is generated through project-based pricing on multi-year contracts, with delivery via Construction Management at-risk, Design-Build, and negotiated GMP models rather than hard-bid lump sum. Go-to-market is relationship-driven and regional: leadership and project teams engage directly with owners, developers, and architect partners throughout the project lifecycle. The firm is management-owned following the 2025 retirement of founder Mark Neagley, with co-owners Andrew Martin (CEO since 2014) and Rob Higgins (President since 2025, 25-year tenure).
