Testimonials

New South Construction has been more of a surprise to me, only because I had no prior friendships or experiences with them. They really perform - guiding us to decisions that have resulted in better quality at lower cost.

In over 30 years of construction management and engineering design experience, I have never worked with any contractor that approaches New South Construction's level of integrity.

In particular, I want to thank you for the opportunity to meet and work with Billy Joe Cheek. When Huntly Gordon first informed me about Billy Joe, I was certain that he was exaggerating, after all, Superman is a fictional character.

On behalf of Emory University, I wanted to let you know we greatly appreciate the wonderful job that was done on the Autism Resource Center.

New South Construction showed creativity, resourcefulness, determination, cooperation, resilience and persistence in their effort to complete this project.

The team assembled for this project was a pleasure to work with. At every step of the process they demonstrated the highest level of professionalism and met every new challenge with their contagious "can do" attitude.

I just wanted to take a moment to recognize your company for a job well done. We have been very busy this year at Turner Field, and could not have met our deadlines without the tremendous efforts from New South Construction.

The project was delivered on time with the professionalism and efficiency that every building owner desires in a construction team.

The construction of the new annex involved many unforeseen issues that were promptly and professionally handled by New South staff.

I am pleased to let you know that my performance evaluation was as follows: New South Construction Company's work was completed on schedule and within budget. High professional standards and excellent quality of workmanship was maintained from project startup through completion and close out. Your organization's staff provided excellent leadership, were consistently cooperative, maintained ongoing communications and had a "can do attitude" when difficult issues needed to be resolved quickly.

New South Construction completed their first project for us in 1997, and since that time, they have completed over 2.4 million square feet of construction for Republic Property Company. We have found the executives and employees of New South Construction to be true professionals, committed to providing quality construction and customer satisfaction.

Your company's dedication to meeting the demands of this unique environment, including the ever-changing security needs and traffic patterns, was outstanding.

Having worked with a number of contractors during my career, I can tell you that New South is truly an extraordinary company. New South truly "went the extra mile" to ensure that the facility was well constructed and met our project goals.

It's difficult to express to you how grateful I am for your leadership and for the dedication of your team. Please know that all of your employees have made it difficult for me to stay objective as I evaluate future projects and contractors.

The space, commonly known as the ISOC, was transformed from a cold, hard, institutional 15,000 square feet of computer room to the upscale, user friendly "state of the art" call center we see today. Against all odds and with a most difficult schedule, you were successful in the completion of a project that normally would have taken 6 months. This was possible only through a tremendous number of hours each week.

Dealing with Doug and his people has been a pleasure; we have always felt that the school and the contractor were on the same page. In my experience, they are an "owner's contractor" in the way that they have dealt with their subcontractors in getting the work done to our satisfaction.

Being intimately involved in the construction of a large multi-million dollar facility is not a new experience for me, but I have never before been involved with one that has proceeded as smoothly as this one.

At the onset of this project, I was extremely concerned with the overall success of such an aggressive schedule. The work was at a prescribed stopping point each day of the schedule with little to no impact to the public or to Delta's operation. Thank you for the level of professionalism you and New South always bring to the table.

Emory's approach to provide a parallel estimate and your team's willingness to both format and discuss your estimate in an open book format was key to the owner making informed decisions about the value of the building.

Attention to detail was the key to the success of this complex project. It did not take the New South team long to discover that the success of the project would hinge around the successful operation of the sophisticated equipment purchased by the Owner.

Their long experience in design-build work was evident beginning with the design phase and continuing through the completion of the facility.

New South Construction's management personnel at all levels fostered an exemplary partnering relationship among the subcontractors, the user, the installation and the USACE.

During the whole of this project New South Construction was amazing. Everyone connected with the company was responsive, considerate and professional. Neighbor issues were dealt with quickly and completely. The School's concerns with safety and minimal disturbance to our day were totally dispelled. In fact, the project became a learning experience for students as the Superintendent was a frequent classroom visitor explaining drawings, concrete and steel work and other aspects of the construction.
