What Horus does

HORUS Construction Services, Inc. is a privately-held, family-owned commercial general contractor founded in 2001 in Tampa, Florida, with operational roots tracing to a 1973 stucco business started by the founder's father. The firm delivers new construction, building additions, and interior renovations across K-12, higher education, civic/government, cultural, healthcare, and aviation market sectors, primarily for public and institutional clients in the southeastern United States with a growing multi-state presence (offices in FL, DC, NC, TX, NJ).

The company offers a full portfolio of delivery methods including Design-Bid-Build, Construction Management at Risk (CM-at-Risk) under GMP, Design-Build, Program Management, and Job Order Contracting, supported by in-house preconstruction, estimating, field supervision, and self-performing trade capabilities in drywall, metal framing, concrete masonry, flooring, specialties, sitework, electrical, and painting. A distinct line of business is the HORUS Academy 'Beyond the Boundaries' incubator, which provides free six-month space and operational mentoring to minority, women-owned, and local subcontractors.

HORUS generates revenue through project-based construction contracts (one-time) and managed service arrangements (CM-at-Risk, JOC, Program Management) sold via direct enterprise field sales to institutional buyers. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company is independently owned and controlled by the Graham family with no institutional or PE investment, and the leadership team combines 200+ years of industry experience.
