HEDRICK BROTHERS CONSTRUCTION: Building For the Future By Richard Westlund
Dale Hedrick is building a solid foundation for South Florida’s future. As CEO of Hedrick Brothers Construction, he leads an accomplished team of professionals with extensive experience in serving commercial, education, municipal and luxury residential clients.
“We are a full-service, quality-driven construction management and general contracting firm with a long tradition of excellence,” said Hedrick, CEO of the fast-growing West Palm Beachheadquartered firm. “On every project, we take a proactive, transparent approach to customer service so there are no surprises along the way.” For more than four decades, Hedrick Brothers Construction has been a leader in South Florida’s dynamic commercial and luxury residential markets. With a talented team and leading-edge technology, the company now has more than 45 projects underway that support the region’s business and residential growth. As its pipeline has grown, Hedrick Brothers Construction has scaled up its operations by opening offices in Pompano Beach and Melbourne. In Palm Beach County, Hedrick Brothers Construction’s long list of projects includes Class A “sea suites” for corporate headquarters, as well as schools, multifamily buildings, hotels, industrial facilities, automotive dealerships and more. On the luxury residential side, the company serves owners of expansive condominiums, world-class residences, and equestrian estates, completing projects with skill and discretion. “Our ability to serve diverse markets truly sets us apart,” added Hedrick. “We are also known for cost control and schedule adherence—two fundamentals that are essential to owners, as well as our own success.” Hedrick Brothers Construction takes a partnership approach to
every engagement with an open-book policy, so owners can stay informed every step of the way. The company’s full-service approach includes preconstruction, construction management, design-build, general contracting, virtual design and construction, safety, and sustainable construction. “Our clients benefit from our team being brought in early to establish budgets and to assist the architect and owner with value enhancements,” Hedrick said. “The sooner we are on board, the better the project turns out. We also take care to identify reliable sources of construction materials to avoid supply chain delays.”
A Construction Family Tradition For Hedrick, construction excellence is a family tradition. His great-grandfather was a contractor in North Carolina. His grandfather, George, was a contractor and moved the family to Lake Worth after World War II. Dale’s father, Charles Lee Hedrick, ran a construction company until the 1970s. “By the time I graduated from the University of Florida, my father had retired, so my brother Paul and I started Hedrick Brothers Construction on January 11, 1979,” said Hedrick, who bought out his brother in 1983. Through the years, Hedrick Brothers Construction has grown steadily, thanks in large part to referrals from satisfied customers. “I have never worked with another company in any capacity that was as professional, skilled and honest as Hedrick Brothers
