Our Customer Stories

Terra Constructs was awarded the Sound Walls subcontract for our recently completed I-95 Southern Terminus Extension project in Stafford County. Their level of commitment to timely delivery helped us to complete the project eight (8) months ahead of schedule. We were fortunate to have selected a partner that also understands the importance of producing quality work that meets or exceeds our customers’ expectations and is proactive in seeking and offering solutions to challenging issues. For these reasons, we have since awarded Terra Constructs several additional projects, and we look forward to continuing our relationship for years to come.

Brian Evans, Vice President of Operations at Branch Civil, Inc.

Terra Constructs was able to overcome significant challenges through innovative design, strong construction management, and a ‘never quit’ attitude. This was a substantial project with tight deadlines and various site challenges, however, Terra worked collaboratively with us and condensed their schedule in order to meet the project deadline. In short, they delivered, and I couldn’t be more pleased.

Chuck Smith, Vice President at Shirley Contracting Company, LLC

We hired Terra Constructs to finish site-work on our project after terminating our original contractor. They responded quickly, exemplified excellent workmanship and commitment to detail, and were able to complete the project within budget and on schedule. Their performance on the project gave me the confidence to pursue other similar projects in the future.
