With more than 30 years of experience as a general contractor, and working closely on hundreds of projects with other contractors and developers, we’ve gained a complete understanding of what it takes to deliver successful projects time after time. Our critical path engineering ensures projects are completed precisely to specifications, on time, and within budget.

George Hunt founded our original construction company almost 50 years ago. His son Warren C. Hunt has been in the construction industry since 1962, when he began his career with his father’s general construction company – George Hunt Inc. Warren worked directly with Publix Super Markets in developing shopping centers throughout Florida. He was also the general contractor for hundreds of other Florida projects, some of which are Countryside Mall, Old Hyde Park Village, Island in the Sun, Northwood Plaza, and East Lake Woodlands Condominiums.
 
With the retirement of his father George Hunt in 1981, the building division was phased out, and Warren C. Hunt purchased the underground utility division, becoming a Certified General Contractor in the State of Florida. We specialize in complete site development.
