I had the pleasure of working with John Perkins Construction on a project during my time at a previous company. Their team consistently demonstrated a “can-do” attitude, addressing on-site challenges and changes with professionalism and positivity.
They collaborated effectively with client stakeholders, ensuring full compliance with the policies and standards that formed the core of the employer’s requirements. The project was located within a secure area of the campus, and the team managed the refurbishment of an operational department with great care, ensuring that day-to-day functions were maintained without disruption.
Thanks to their dedication and teamwork, the project was delivered on time with minimal impact on business operations, while maintaining a strong and positive relationship with all parties involved. I would gladly recommend John Perkins Construction and look forward to working with them again in the future.
