Overview:
McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. has been a community builder for nearly 150 years. Founded as a family-owned construction company, we are now 100% employee owned and the 10th largest commercial builder in America.

While much has changed over the years, many significant things have not. First and foremost, we're builders. Self-performance remains the foundation of our business. Couple this hands-on approach with a passionate belief in our people; a desire to build relationships based on trust and integrity; and a deeply-felt obligation to give back to our communities. Now, you begin to understand what lies at the heart of McCarthy—what truly sets us apart—and why we are repeatedly recognized as a Best Place to Work in our communities and across America.

Clients turn to McCarthy to solve their toughest construction challenges, and our employees are inspired to step up and overcome these. We provide construction management, general contracting, design-build and self-perform service nationwide. The firm has full-service offices in Atlanta, Dallas, Phoenix, Las Vegas, St. Louis, San Diego, Newport Beach, San Francisco and Sacramento.

For the past thirty years, McCarthy has tackled the largest and most complex projects in Texas.

What makes us different? We're builders first, working hands-on every step of the way-from preconstruction through completion. That gives us a leg up on solving every problem. At McCarthy, our employees build more than the structure itself. We build certainty into everything we do: budget, schedule, quality, safety and more.

We create the buildings and infrastructure that make Texas cities strong-and have given back through outreach programs that make our neighborhoods better. We wouldn't have it any other way.
