Commercial Construction
We Do Commercial Construction Differently
The construction division at Cody Coughlin represents the culmination of decades of industry expertise and innovation. Our approach to building isn't just about structures—it's about creating value through thoughtful planning and flawless execution.
Built on exceptionally strong financial foundations, our construction team brings substantial bonding capacity and proven capabilities to every project we undertake. This robust backing allows us to confidently handle diverse commercial projects ranging from multifamily complexes and retail centers to healthcare facilities and public infrastructure.
Whether supporting our own development initiatives or delivering exceptional results for third-party clients throughout Columbus and beyond, we maintain an unwavering standard of excellence that defines everything we do.
WHY CLIENTS CHOOSE US
Two core strengths define our approach to construction: pre-construction precision and operational excellence.
We take exceptional pride in our pre-construction capabilities. The team excels at developing accurate numbers, implementing strategic procurement processes, and establishing projects for operational success from day one. This isn't just industry talk—it translates to real advantages when clients bring us in early. Our meticulous planning phase spots potential challenges before they become expensive problems.
But where we truly shine is in the field. We intentionally run lean operations rather than managing from corner offices. Our focus stays where it matters most—with the people actually doing the work.
Our field-first approach follows a construction methodology known as the Last Planner System. By empowering the boots on the ground and fostering open communication between trades, we've created a commercial construction environment where efficiency thrives.
This philosophy supports a process where everyone benefits—especially our clients. When job sites run efficiently, schedules stay intact, budgets remain under control, and quality rises across the board.
