Our Story
Lowder Construction, Inc. was founded in 1994 to frame commercial multifamily wood projects for general contractors. Three decades later the company still does one thing: garden, wrap and podium framing, delivered with professional job-site management from pre-construction through completion.
General contractors hire us because we take ownership of our scope. Our Pre-Construction department brings more than 30 years of experience to every bid and gets back to general contractors and vendors quickly, with the numbers, the schedule and the paperwork in order. Experienced project managers and OSHA 30 trained superintendents lead every site, and if an issue comes up, we take responsibility for it, fix it and document it.
We build long-term partnerships with general contractors and vendors by being easy to work with: straight answers, a schedule we keep and a site that runs clean. Contracts run from $1 million to $8 million, and our crews travel across North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia and Virginia, from coastal towns to the Tennessee mountains. The family’s steel company, Lowder Steel, works out of the same Archdale, North Carolina address, so a general contractor who needs both trades has one name to call.
