Self-Performed Construction Services

With our in-house construction services, we don't just run the work. We take a hand in it, too.
Carl A. Nelson & Company is a self-performing builder, meaning we subcontract only a portion of the construction when working in the design-build, construction management at-risk or general contractor method of construction project delivery.
Relying on our highly trained, cost-effective local merit shop craftsmen to deliver quality, we self-perform about 40 percent of the work we contract for annually.
