What Neighborgall Construction does

The Neighborgall Construction Company is a privately held, family-owned general contractor founded in 1926 in Huntington, West Virginia, and currently led by fourth-generation family members C.R. Neighborgall IV (President) and Charlie Neighborgall III (Chairman). The firm delivers construction services across three primary engagement models: Construction Management (fee-based advisory and technical management through design and construction), General Contracting (lump-sum or negotiated fixed-price delivery on 100% complete design), and Design-Build (integrated design and construction under a single project manager). It serves six vertical markets — healthcare, education, government, corporate, industrial, and community — through projects anchored in the West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, and Virginia tri-state region, with a notable concentration in healthcare (St. Mary's, Cabell Huntington, Thomas Memorial, King's Daughters, Edwards Comprehensive Cancer Center, CAMC, Boone Memorial) and education (Marshall University across decades, multiple K-12 districts, Mountwest Community and Technical College).

The business operates with a small core office staff (11–50 employees firmographic range, ~16 named personnel in management and project roles), supplemented by subcontracted trade labor in line with industry norms. Revenue is generated on a project-by-project basis through competitive bidding on design-bid-build projects and negotiated contracts on construction management and design-build engagements, with no publicly disclosed pricing tiers. Long-standing owner relationships — particularly with Marshall University and several regional health systems that have engaged the firm across multiple building programs and decades — drive repeat business. Adjacent offerings include a "Storied Construction" educational podcast and affiliations with AIA West Virginia, AGC of America, Contractors Association of West Virginia, Construction Financial Management Association, and the Huntington Chamber of Regional Commerce, alongside use of iSqFt.com for preconstruction bid management.

The firm's competitive position rests on nearly a century of continuous operation, regional brand recognition (1944 Engineering News Record cover feature, 1992 ENR Top 400 listing with $52.4M of work on the books), deep local subcontractor and materials sourcing knowledge, and multi-generational client trust. Technology adoption is conventional and partnership-led (iSqFt.com), with no proprietary software or AI/ML capabilities disclosed.
