A Highly Principled approach

Executive Construction is a general contractor based in the Chicagoland area whose work is underscored by a highly principled approach to business. Collaboration is in our DNA. For over 50 years, we established ourselves as a trusted partner to nationally-recognized architects and real estate firms, creating unique spaces for notable clients and Fortune 500 companies.

Our teams lead construction on projects across a wide range of sizes and complexities, from smaller-scale builds to large-scale developments within the new construction, interiors, mission critical, and life sciences markets.

Two offices comprised of 175+ professionals, including union tradespersons that make up our field forces.

Virtual Design & Construction (VDC) customizes technology approach to visualize existing conditions and build progress; and enhance coordination and prefabrication.

While the majority of our builds occur in and around Chicago, we continue to expand our builds across the country, particularly with mission critical clients and through our virtual design and construction (VDC) services.

collaboration is in our dna

Our team delivers spaces for people to work, learn, advocate, enjoy, and, importantly, support their own team and customers. For over 50 years, our portfolio has filled with collaborations on data centers; educational and not for profit institutions; banks and trading floors; corporate offices and law firms; building infrastructure and hospitality; retail and industrial buildings; and laboratories and healthcare spaces.
