What Padilla Construction Services does

Padilla Construction Services, Inc. (PCS) is a New York-based heavy construction general contractor and utility consultant founded in 1993 in Westbury, NY. The company is a certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and operates two integrated lines of business: (1) full-service general contracting covering new construction, renovations, and restoration projects with self-performed scope in concrete, masonry, paving, streetscape, stone setting, bulkhead repair, excavation, underground utilities, and waterproofing; and (2) an in-house metal fabrication shop producing ornamental iron work, railings, fences, roof barriers, stainless steel, wall panels, welding, and polishing. PCS is capitalized with over $5 million of owned construction equipment and a corporate-owned headquarters, enabling self-performance of major project components.

The company serves almost exclusively NYC-area public-sector clients, with primary customers including NYC municipal agencies and authorities (Department of Design and Construction, School Construction Authority, Department of Parks and Recreation, Department of Sanitation, Department of Correction, Economic Development Corporation) and the Port Authority of NY & NJ. Disclosed projects include the $45.1M Rockaway Beach Boardwalk (Hurricane Sandy emergency repair), the $29.6M World Trade Center Vehicle Security Center & Tour Bus Parking Facility, the $22.98M Queens Community District 14 Garage Facility, the $20.45M Jamaica High School exterior restoration, and the $51M Crossroads Juvenile Detention Center, alongside subcontract work for Skanska Buildings USA on the United Nations North Screening Building and a $1.6M esplanade project for Hospital for Special Surgery.

PCS generates revenue through project-based, competitively bid general contracting contracts, augmented by hardware-equipment utilization and standalone metal fabrication work. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales into public agencies, with certifications (MBE, NYC Small Business Services, NYC SCA, Port Authority) serving as the primary qualification mechanism rather than traditional marketing. Leadership is founder-led: Samuel Padilla as President, Alexander Holuka as Vice President, and Jeff Sa as Director of Construction. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investment or external funding rounds.
