"The site for this project presented several challenges due to the existing topography. We used a partnering approach with the subcontractors to overcome those and achieve a high-quality end product for Col-Met."

This building represented the first Bob Moore Construction project for James Collier Properties. "We had several companies bid on this project," said Jim Collier, owner of James Collier Properties. "The bids were pretty close. It got down to who we were most comfortable with. We chose Bob Moore Construction and I'm glad we did. They did a great job on the building. The project was completed on schedule and we'll be ready for the clients to move in the first week of April."
