A better, easier building experience.

That's the JZ difference.

At JZ Companies, we simplify your life by sharing your vision and using our extensive commercial contracting experience to deliver exceptional value. Whether you work with JZ Construction on new retail space or office renovation, or with JZ Development to create a new shopping center, our philosophy is simple: Give our commercial contracting and development customers exceptional quality, at a great price, every time.

Since 1989, we have earned a reputation for hard work, creative solutions, and always serving our clients’ best interests. As a general contractor with a background as a registered architect, we are able to anticipate, troubleshoot, and professionally provide the best in construction management for your project.

Our Approach to Building Success:

  • Building Value: We consistently deliver the highest quality possible on projects large and small. Whether you need an office addition, showroom renovation, turnkey construction, or comprehensive urban development, we find ways to bring creative options that will maximize your return on investment.
  • Building Relationships: The best way to build relationships is to do the job right. That means managing your commercial construction or development project professionally and efficiently. That also means we are able to maintain our relationships with top suppliers, designers, subcontractors, utilities, and municipalities—and we put those relationships to work for you.
  • Building Integrity: You can’t know this until you’ve worked with us, but ask our clients. We do what we say we’ll do, and you can count on it.
