What Grace Construction Company does

Grace Construction Company is a fourth-generation, family-owned general contracting and construction management firm headquartered in Daphne, Alabama, with operational roots in Memphis, Tennessee. Founded in 1994 as a spin-off from RFS, Inc. and tracing its lineage to the J.M. O'Brien Company established in 1957, the firm delivers multi-family new construction, commercial construction, rehabilitation/renovation, restoration, and capital expenditure project management across the Southeastern United States, including Alabama, Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, and South Carolina.

The company's service portfolio spans ground-up construction for apartment complexes and clubhouses, commercial buildouts for healthcare, education, retail, hospitality, and entertainment sectors, and specialized renovation work including structural repairs, fire and storm damage restoration, and exterior rehabilitation. Project delivery is supported by in-house feasibility studies, cost estimation, and construction management oversight, with each project assigned a dedicated full-time superintendent. Notable engagements include the $1.5M Minglewood Hall concert venue renovation, the $1.6M Residences at Lakeview lakefront clubhouse (requiring 44 helical piers at 25-foot depth), a $5M Premier Lanes bowling alley expansion, and multiple VA Clinic and Vet Center projects across four states.

Grace Construction operates a project-based revenue model, generating income through fixed-price and cost-plus general contracting contracts plus professional services construction management fees. Pricing is quote-based and project-specific. The go-to-market is relationship-driven and sales-led: over 75% of projects originate from repeat clients, supported by direct engagement with property owners, developers, architects, facility managers, and government agencies. Marketing channels are modest, centered on the company website, social media profiles (Facebook, LinkedIn, Yelp), and organic search, with no institutional investors, public listing, or external funding disclosed.
