Founded in 2003, Fulcrum Construction is a mid-sized General Contractor with a small company feel. Our home office is in Atlanta (GA) with regional offices in Long Beach (CA), San Antonio (TX), Portland (OR), and Medford (NJ).

Retail construction is our bread and butter (includes site work, ground up store/facility construction, tenant improvements and open store remodels). It’s where Fulcrum got started. Everything from $25,000 remodels to $30 million ground up projects and everything in between. Most projects are in the $500,000 to $10 million range with an 6-40 week duration.

As the retail landscape has changed so have we. Our office and industrial portfolio is growing. Convenience stores, fuel service stations, grocery stores and quick serve restaurants are now also part of our construction services.
