Winner! 2018 Collier BIA Sand Dollar Award for Best Commercial Project

DEC Contracting Group Wins Big with Collier County Court House First Floor Renovation

Construction work has been described as many things. “Quiet” is not one of them. It turned out to be one of many challenges set forth to DEC Contracting Group, Inc. by the Collier County government after the team took on the interior renovation of the Collier County courthouse’s first floor.

Because the courthouse needed to stay fully functioning and occupied throughout the project’s duration, the experienced team at DEC Contracting Group, Inc. had to get creative. To avoid causing any loud noise or disruption to daily courthouse operations, the contractors worked differing hours – that is, early mornings, early evenings, late at night and on weekends – depending on the scope of the specific activity or work to be performed that day.

Beyond that obstacle, every worker was required to pass background checks and be issued badges prior to working at the courthouse building. Fortunately, DEC Contracting Group, Inc. has an extremely organized and professional support team who expertly managed the office logistics and credentials. It’s a great example of our commitment to providing an excellent customer experience for our clients.

The team ran into one final challenge during the electrical stage. After 30 years of renovations and expansions, connecting new electrical work to existing circuits proved to be quite the maze! Thankfully, our contractors bring years of experience to the job each day. They located the correct circuits and made the required connections – while keeping the courthouse fully operational with no downtime.

After the project’s completion, the Collier Building Industry Association (CBIA) awarded DEC Contracting Group, Inc. with the 2018 Sand Dollar Award for Best Commercial Project. It is an honor that we are proud to share with each team member who helped us deliver an excellent customer experience to the Collier County community. It’s all in a day’s work for DEC Contracting Group!
