Your Trusted Partner in Customized Commercial Construction Solutions

We challenged Stellar to complete the project in just over five months. This was an incredibly fast-track schedule, given that retrofits of this scale, as we were told by our own advisors, typically require at least eight to nine months. Stellar's versatility and experience with complex construction enabled them to meet this aggressive schedule while achieving our high quality and safety standards.

It is not very often that I find myself in a position to write a letter such as this one, where we had such a favorable experience in a very time-sensitive multi-million dollar construction project. Stellar's attention to detail and management of all subcontractors and work site personnel was outstanding. Their project managers communicated well with my team and were responsive to our questions and concerns through the many changes along the way. Our facility in Jacksonville is up and operating, at a level beyond our expectations for a job that was completed in such a short time frame.

We’re good at what we do but our specialty is not in construction. When we needed a design and construction specialist, Stellar was there for us. Dr. Bowden and I had a vision and an idea of how much we wanted to spend and a definite date for our grand opening. Stellar made all of that happen.

Throughout the project we found Stellar’s project management team to be attentive and courteous. They listened to our needs and to the needs of our staff and then did what was asked of them. We first noticed this early in the design process and found it to be true all the way to the end.

The pressure was put on this team from the day we broke ground and they heeded the call. These dedicated young construction professionals show what great teamwork is all about.

I entrusted Stellar with three very important building projects during my career – my work, my home and my place of worship. Each time, they exceeded my expectations. As CEO of American Heritage Life (now a subsidiary of Allstate), I chose Stellar to build a new headquarters. And when we expanded, I called upon them to build an addition to the building. Years later, when I wanted to build a home on my quail-hunting plantation, Stellar was the natural choice. And when a fire destroyed the sanctuary at our church, Hendricks Avenue Baptist, I was fortunate to be able to help select Stellar to rebuild it.

The obvious strength of Stellar is its many good, capable, and devoted people. During the rebuilding of Hendricks Avenue Baptist Church, we found, without exception, all of your people to be trustworthy professionals who were committed to the successful completion of a quality product, on a timely basis, and consistent with the plans made by the church team and the design firm.

With your team’s ability not only to build for us what was planned, but also to make numerous good suggestions along the way, you added much value to what is now a finished product for the entire team to be proud of.

Stellar worked with us to overcome the various project challenges and completed the job on time and within budget. Even upon completion, Stellar has continued to be a valuable resource for us. We would highly recommend them for your upcoming project.

Through the years we have found the Stellar personnel to be of the highest quality and to be very qualified in their respective positions. They perform well as a team and all have the successful completion of the job and customer satisfaction as a major objective.

The design team has always been attentive to customer requirements, and they have spent time examining the customers’ existing operations to fully understand the unique customer requirements. They are energy-conservation conscious and are helpful with suggestions for new materials.

The means and methods for accomplishing the work are always well-planned, well-supervised, and well-executed. The selection of subcontractors has always been done in a thorough manner with very capable subs placed on the job.

I can’t say enough about Stellar's attention to the safety and security of our residents, families, visitors and staff. As our existing building remained open throughout the yearlong construction process, Stellar implemented comprehensive safety procedures such as floor-to-ceiling barriers, workers posted at entry points and more. They were truly uncompromising in ensuring a safe worksite and minimizing any disruption to our residents' safety and quality of life. For most of the project, folks didn't even realize they were in the building.

Stellar exceeded all of our expectations. The project was delivered on time and within budget. In addition to their safety procedures, they communicated proactively throughout the project, with comprehensive reports and updates. From our very first meeting; it was clear that Stellar was committed to getting everything right. They were uncompromising in their attention to detail and remained focused on quality, budget and timeliness.
