Wallberg Construction

What Wallberg Construction does

Wallberg Construction is a privately held commercial general contractor headquartered in Abingdon, Virginia, providing design-build, construction management, general contracting, and project development services across Virginia, Tennessee, and the broader Eastern United States. The company traces its operating heritage to Wallace Brothers Construction, founded more than 40 years ago by Jeff and Andy Wallace, and was rebranded in 2016 when David and Nathan Berg partnered with the Wallace family and assumed co-CEO roles. Services span the full construction lifecycle — from early-stage ideation, conceptual renderings, site selection, and interior design through certified-architect collaboration, construction execution, and project management — with specialties in retail build-outs, prefabricated metal buildings, churches, and institutional/educational facilities.

The company serves enterprise and mid-market clients across six verticals: education (Emory & Henry College, Virginia Tech Agricultural Research Center), government (USGS Virginia Field Headquarters, Virginia Department of Social Services, Damascus Trail Center), financial institutions (First Community Bank, Edward Jones), retail (Hibbett Sporting Goods, Ollie's Bargain Outlet), industrial (Mountain Top Custom Kennels, Hapco Pole Products), and healthcare (Mel Leaman Medical Clinic). It operates under a Virginia Class A Contractor License and a Tennessee Commercial Building Contractor License, supplemented by OSHA 30, ASHE Healthcare, EPA Lead-Safe, VDOT Flagging, and Scaffold Training Institute credentials that qualify it for regulated public-sector and institutional bids.

Revenue is generated through project-based, quote-driven contracts — one-time engagements for design-build, construction management, and general contracting — with no disclosed pricing, subscription, or recurring revenue model. The go-to-market is direct-relationship sales targeting enterprise clients (universities, government agencies, financial institutions, national retail chains) and mid-market local businesses, supplemented by content marketing through blog posts on architecture and behavioral science. The company is founder-owned and operated with no institutional investors, no disclosed funding rounds, no subsidiaries, and no M&A activity identified.
