As the Carolinas Associated General Contractor "Contractor of the Year" for 2006, and a leading general contractor in the Southeast, Hightower Construction Company, Inc. offers full construction services, including design build. Hightower's staff comprised of architects, engineers, project managers, superintendents and a skilled workforce can take a project from initial concept through building construction and beyond. Hightower's drive is to exceed their client's expectations of quality in every aspect of the project.
Business for Hightower began nearly 50 years ago, when Cooper and Elizabeth Hightower started their first job on a firm handshake and a commitment to quality. Since then, Hightower’s reputation has flourished throughout the Lowcountry as a premier general contractor providing exceptional quality and craftsmanship to projects both large and small.
The tradition of commitment continues today under the leadership of Jimmy Hightower and over 100 employees who work toward the common goal of serving clients with a consistent level of professionalism, integrity, and quality. While construction disciplines and technologies remain an important aspect of Hightower’s overall contractor capabilities, it can never replace the personal commitment required to actually make things happen. Hightower’s “CAN DO” approach to doing business establishes real partnership with its clients and brings the making-things-happen philosophy to life.
Years and years of work in the industry have led Hightower to recognize the need for the hands-on capabilities required to fully meet the expectations of designers, architects, field managers and corporate executives. Whatever objective, Hightower CAN DO it, and whatever the task, Hightower CAN DO it well.
