Nations Construction

What Nations Construction does

Nations Construction, LLC is a Houston, Texas-based general construction contractor founded in 2011 by Michael Czapski. The company delivers ground-up construction, renovation, and build-out services across four core verticals: multi-family housing, commercial, residential, and specialized care (including senior living and healthcare) facilities. Founder Czapski has overseen more than $300 million in cumulative historical construction costs, and individual project engagements span roughly $680,000 to $27.8 million in value.

The firm operates across seven states — Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas, Colorado, Kansas, and Tennessee — with a particular specialization in Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA) tax-credit affordable housing programs. Beyond its core general contracting line, Nations has launched Development Services and Management Services offerings, allowing it to participate earlier in the project lifecycle (pre-construction advisory, feasibility, and owner representation) and to remain engaged after construction completion through property management.

Nations Construction is a privately held, family-run business with a headcount in the 11–50 range. Senior leadership includes founder Michael Czapski and partner Gordon Scott (who joined full-time in 2014 and brings 35+ years of industry experience), supported by project management staff such as Elizabeth Van Ness. The company serves a project-based customer base of approximately 17 named enterprise and developer clients across its regional footprint, with revenue mechanics driven primarily by fixed-price and cost-plus construction contracts.
