Frampton Construction

Our Story

Frampton is for everyone out there who wants to do something different. It’s for people looking for an individualized construction experience, from concept to closeout.

No corners cut,
no stone unturned.

And that’s because we’re a different breed of professional. We value lasting relationships over individual transactions; we use different technology to deliver different results.

We don’t hide from change — we embrace it, striving to become a different company every single day in our quest to reimagine commercial construction into something wholly unique — something fresh and exciting.

Something different.

We define ourselves by a different measurement scale, building upon our foundation of integrity and trust to do the right thing right, giving every project our all, as if it were our own. Each day, we challenge everything we’ve ever done in the pursuit of everywhere we have yet to go, because to us, it’s never just a job.

It’s an opportunity to build a better future for our clients, our coworkers, and our community. And that’s why we’ll never rest until we get it right.
