Our Services
SouthCon Building Group is a full-service general contractor based in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, with expertise in commercial, industrial, retail, and institutional construction projects. Holding an unlimited contractor’s license in South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia, SouthCon offers a wide range of services, including construction management, design-build, and renovations. SouthCon is recognized for its collaborative approach to project management, emphasizing quality, cost control, and sustainability.
At SouthCon, we recognize that the foundation of a successful project is built long before construction begins. Our preconstruction services are designed to provide clients with accurate budgeting, strategic planning, and design-phase support. By evaluating constructability, identifying potential challenges early, and offering cost-saving alternatives, we help ensure each project is delivered efficiently, within budget, and aligned with the owner’s vision.
We believe early engagement is critical to effective budget management. SouthCon provides detailed budget estimates during the initial stages of design, giving owners the accurate financial data needed to make informed, cost-conscious decisions throughout the project lifecycle.
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a data-driven process that supports the planning, design, construction, and operation of a facility through a digital 3D model. By using Navisworks, SouthCon’s Project Management Team enhances coordination and communication with the design team, allowing for early detection of conflicts and more efficient project execution.
SouthCon partners with respected design professionals at the local, regional, and national level. Our collaborative approach ensures seamless integration of design intent and construction execution, engaging all stakeholders with a shared commitment to project success.
SouthCon’s scheduling process is led by the project team—most often the Project Manager and Superintendent—ensuring practical timelines based on real-world experience. For more complex projects, we bring in a dedicated Scheduling Consultant to enhance planning. This team-based approach results in realistic schedules that keep projects moving efficiently and on time.
SouthCon values the partnerships we’ve built with our trade contractors and vendors. We approach every relationship with fairness, respect, and integrity—principles that have earned us reliable service, competitive pricing, and long-term trust.
SouthCon brings proven expertise to value engineering—helping clients adjust scope to meet budget, constructability, or scheduling needs. We approach each challenge with professionalism and collaboration.
Our construction services are rooted in a collaborative process that prioritizes quality, schedule, and budget. By maintaining open communication and a client-first mindset, SouthCon ensures a seamless construction experience backed by technical expertise and trusted execution.
At SouthCon, cost management is a disciplined process built on expertise, accuracy, and transparency. Our team actively tracks and controls costs throughout the project lifecycle. We openly share this information with our clients to support timely, data-driven decision-making in the best interest of the project.
At SouthCon, project management is the backbone of every successful build. Our experienced project managers lead with a hands-on, solutions-oriented approach, coordinating between clients, design teams, subcontractors, and field personnel. With a sharp focus on schedule, cost, and quality, we provide the leadership necessary to move projects forward with confidence and control.
SouthCon applies a proprietary quality assurance process on every project, guided by a detailed Quality Assurance Manual developed specifically for our operations. This proactive, step-by-step approach helps identify and resolve potential issues early. We minimize rework by prioritizing prevention over correction and ensure consistent, high-quality results across all project types.
From planning to execution, safety is embedded in everything we do. Our team crafts a site specific safety plan for each project—because there’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to keeping our people and projects safe.
SouthCon uses advanced construction management software to track every phase of a project—from budgeting and job costing to subcontractor coordination and full financial oversite. We also use a web base platform to distribute drawings and specifications, streamlining the bid process with quick access and improved response from subcontractors and vendors
At SouthCon, we understand the growing importance of sustainability in construction. Our team brings both experience and accreditation—including a LEED Accredited Professional—to help you explore and implement sustainable strategies tailored to your project goals.
SouthCon specializes in historic renovations, balancing preservation with modern upgrades. We collaborate with experts and regulatory agencies to maintain architectural integrity while enhancing long-term functionality.
