RFB Contractors

What RFB Contractors does

RFB Contractors LLC is a privately held, Atlanta-headquartered commercial and civil/infrastructure general contractor delivering General Construction, Construction Management At-Risk, and Design Build services to public and private sector clients. Founded in 2009, the firm holds general contractor licenses in Georgia, Florida, Alabama, and Mississippi, and maintains capability to perform federal work nationwide; its market verticals span aviation, government, healthcare, education, water treatment/wastewater, and commercial/mixed-use projects. RFB leverages a stacked certification portfolio — SBA 8(a), WOSB, DBE, AABE, WBE, GSA Mentor-Protégé, and SBA Mentor-Protégé — to access government contracting set-asides and structured capacity-building relationships, achieving LEED Silver certification on multiple federal and educational projects.

The company operates a project-based, one-time contract revenue model with awarded contract values ranging from approximately $1 million to $300 million. It frequently positions as a minority joint venture partner with larger general contractors — Brasfield & Gorrie (on federal and municipal projects including a $46M U.S. Treasury Building and multiple Land Ports of Entry) and Manhattan Construction (on Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport work including a $28M South Deicing Complex) — enabling access to projects beyond its standalone scale. Notable prime and JV work spans the $300M Hemphill and Chattahoochee Water Treatment Plants expansion for the City of Atlanta Watershed, a $24M Kaiser Permanente medical office building in Kennesaw, GA, an 80,290 SF LEED Silver Fine Arts Building at Albany State University, and a $13M LEED Silver Northwest Atlanta Library at Scotts Crossing for Fulton County.

The firm is led by CEO Ron Martin, a Certified Licensed General Contractor with 35 years of commercial, residential, municipal, and educational construction experience across GA, FL, AL, and MS, and Director of Construction Sherrae Barlow, who brings prior experience on the $1.1B Indianapolis International Airport and the $320M Atlanta water tunnel project. Ownership is founder/management-held with no identified external institutional investors or private equity backing. The company operates out of a single office at 260 Peachtree Street NW, Suite 901, Atlanta, and is actively recruiting across Project Management, Estimating, and Administration roles.
