Top 18 Fort Lauderdale Construction Companies For Your Shortlist

According to the U.S. Department of Labor, construction hiring has been on an upward trend almost continuously since 2012. And a recent survey by the Associated Builders and Contractors of Florida found that 88% of construction companies are increasing hiring because 45% expect their businesses to grow.

Although many might assume that this tells a big part of the story of the South Florida construction market, it overlooks just how much buyer preferences have changed in recent years.

As part of the South Florida Construction Market Opportunity Report, we set out to answer the question: which construction companies in South Florida are the most digitally savvy? We ended up analyzing 87 construction firms located anywhere from Jupiter down to Homestead.
