F&S Building Innovations

What F&S Building Innovations does

F&S Building Innovations, Inc. is a privately held Class A General Contractor founded in 1976 by Gary Feazell in Roanoke, Virginia. The firm began as a custom home builder and pivoted to commercial construction in 1991, building a multi-decade presence across Central and Southwest Virginia with Class A licensing in both Virginia and North Carolina. Its core offerings are ground-up commercial construction, commercial remodeling/renovation, and integrated design-build delivery, supported by pre-construction planning, self-perform work capability, accurate estimating, and a safety-first program. Specialty services include healthcare renovations (with HCC and CHC certified staff), tenant upfits, and maintenance contracts.

The company serves enterprise and institutional clients across six verticals: healthcare facilities (primary), commercial offices, retail chains (including supermarket and convenience store accounts), educational facilities, religious assemblies, and warehouse/industrial projects. Named customers include Appalachian Regional Healthcare (ARH), Carilion Clinic, Catawba Hospital, Christiansburg Fire Station, Crossroads Church, Eastlake Community Church, Farm Credit, and Sheetz. Distribution is entirely direct field sales via competitive bidding and relationship-based proposals; there are no self-serve or digital channels. Pricing is custom per project with free estimates and multi-year contract cadence.

F&S is owner-operated by Gary Feazell and Delores Feazell, with a leadership team whose tenure averages 25-30+ years (Tina Rush, President/CFO; Alicia Smith, VP; Gene Rush, Director of Construction). The firm holds SWaM, EPA Lead-Safe, BBB A+, and Qualified Remodeler Top 500 credentials, and is a member of AGC of Virginia, NAHB, NARI, USGBC, VSHE, and the Home Builders Association of Virginia. In 2020, the founder established Build Smart Institute, a vocational school for trades training. The firm has no disclosed proprietary technology platform and no AI/ML capabilities.
