Hammerhead Construction Co.

About

A young company with an old-fashioned reputation

Hammerhead Construction Co. Ltd. is a Bahamian-owned and operated general contracting and construction management company. We started in 2019 with one building on Madeira Street and have grown, almost entirely on repeat clients and word of mouth, into roofing, custom homes, steel buildings and commercial work across New Providence and the Family Islands.

How we work

Integrity, precision and reliability are the three words we started with, and they still describe the job. We put the scope, price and programme in writing before we start. We tell you what we find when we open up a roof or a wall, with photos, and we price the fix before we do it. And we finish: on time, within budget, and to a standard we would accept in our own homes.

We rarely have to produce a company profile. Most of the people who call us were given our number by someone we have already built for.

Mission

To build lasting structures and relationships through excellence, transparency and innovation, giving every client exceptional value and dependable craftsmanship.

Vision

To be recognised as one of the leading construction companies in The Bahamas, producing quality projects while keeping professionalism, integrity and strong client relationships at the centre of the work.

What we hold ourselves to

Integrity

Honesty and accountability on every project, in every invoice.

Quality

Every detail meets the standard, or it gets done again.

Safety

A site-specific Health & Safety Plan and a zero-compromise culture on every site.

Teamwork

Our crews, our clients, their architects and engineers, pulling the same way.

Innovation

Modern materials and methods, from Enviroshake to drone surveys and digital RFIs.
