What Mark Scott Construction Inc does

Mark Scott Construction, Inc. is a privately held, full-service general contracting and restoration firm founded in 1989 and headquartered in Pleasant Hill, California. The company operates through four organizational brands: the core Mark Scott Construction (custom residential homes, high-end renovations, and real estate development), MS Commercial (industrial, healthcare, office, retail, government, educational, transportation, and EV infrastructure projects), MS Restoration (water, fire/smoke, mold remediation, and contents restoration backed by a 12,000 sq. ft. climate-controlled storage facility and 24/7 emergency response), and MS Flooring (carpet, vinyl plank, sheet vinyl, laminate, hardwood, and custom cabinetry with a showroom in Pleasant Hill).

The company is licensed as a general contractor in seven western U.S. states (California, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, Hawaii, New Mexico, and Washington), employs between 101 and 250 people, and operates five offices (Pleasant Hill, Fairfield, Cotati, Los Angeles, Phoenix). It maintains preferred-vendor and Direct Repair Network membership with more than twenty major insurance carriers (State Farm, Allstate, USAA, Farmers, AAA, Liberty Mutual, Travelers, Nationwide, AIG, Mercury, The Hartford, among others), which drives a material share of insurance reconstruction and restoration revenue. Mark Scott Construction also offers a specialized Wildfire Recovery service for California wildfire-affected homeowners.

Revenue is generated through project-based contracts (custom homes, commercial builds, development), insurance carrier referrals (reconstruction and emergency mitigation), and retail flooring/cabinetry sales through the MS Flooring showroom. The company holds BBB A+, IICRC, OSHA 10/30, LEAD, EPA, and NAHB Certified Green Building Professional credentials, and uses Xactimate, CoreLogic, Gordian, CSI, DocuSketch, and Matterport as its core technology platforms for estimating, documentation, and 3D property scanning.
