WC Construction

What WC Construction does

WC Construction is a Texas-based commercial general contractor founded in 2017 by Will Carter (Texas A&M alumnus), headquartered in The Woodlands, Texas with a recently opened Houston office (7026 Old Katy Road). The firm delivers general contracting, construction management, design-build, and pre-construction services to enterprise and mid-market clients across six verticals: office and corporate, medical and healthcare, retail, hospitality, automotive, and light industrial. Select engagements span Class A office buildouts, medical office renovations, automotive dealerships, restaurants, and municipal projects across Houston, The Woodlands, Bryan-College Station, and Galveston.

The company operates with 11-50 staff carrying over 100 years of combined construction expertise, using Procore for project document management and blueprint storage, and maintaining in-house design/build capabilities. Core service lines include commercial interiors, new construction, complex renovations, design/build, construction management, and pre-construction planning. Its go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-first, with projects sourced via referrals, repeat business, and business development rather than intermediary channels.

Revenue is generated through project-based contracts priced by scope, square footage, finishes, and complexity, with multi-year billing cadences. The company is privately held and founder-owned, with no external institutional investors disclosed. WC Construction has been recognized on the 2024 Aggie 100 (rank 48, 57.5% CAGR), HBJ Fast 50 (rank 16), and HBJ Best Places to Work (96.76% score, rank 11 in Extra Small Business); founder Will Carter received the 2025 Vistage Member Excellence Impact Award. The company is a member of CoreNet Global Houston, NAIOP, AIA Houston, Greater Houston Partnership, and local Chambers of Commerce.
