About B.V.F. Construction
HISTORY
Bob Valentine and Fred Vernon, (B.V.F. stands for Bob, V - last names and Fred)
two friends, employed by Dale Construction doing carpentry and drywall
on various projects for a number of years, started B.V.F. back on
December 10th, 1984. Now, in our fortieth year, we still have
one thought in mind, to be the best contractor in the business. We do
everything possible to perform every job with the highest caliber of
honesty and integrity so as to establish a relationship with the
Owners, General Contractors, Developers and other trades, who we work
for and with, that will last forever. We employ a very dedicated work
force, who perform their job, not only with speed and efficiency but
with common courtesy, not usually found in the construction
trades. Thanks to their efforts, B.V.F. has been able to accumulate a
large number of builders, general contractors and retail merchants, who
contract us in all phases of carpentry; including metal studding,
insulation, drywall, acoustical ceiling, cabinetry and fixtures. Over
the years, completed projects include everything from churches,
shopping centers, funeral homes and office buildings which varied in
size from one to twenty-two stories, contracting not just one but all
phases of each project. A vast number of retail stores, shells, tenant
fit outs and housing developments throughout the area are included in
our completed projects.
B.V.F.
is a union contractor signed with both the United Brotherhood of
Carpenters and Joiners of America and the International Painters and
Allied Trades Unions. Our number of carpenters and drywall finishers
varies according to our job commitments , the only way to stay
competitive, but our ranks have swelled to a high employment of 138
employees back in 2006 when we had sales of $11,600,000.00.
Our
bond is stronger than ever thanks in part that we both live our lives
following the Golden Rule “do unto others as you would have others do
unto you”. One result of this is that B.V.F has never been late paying
a bill when due since being in business so we have a very strong
relationship with our suppliers, who will always go that extra mile for
us, and everyone else that we have paid in the past forty years.
Also, we are very proud to be a VOSB, Veteran Owned Small Business,
because the Veteran Administrations’ requirements are no easy task for
a company to attain this classification.
With an eye
to the future, two of our long time employees, who have always proven
to be integral members of our Company, David Hastings and Joshua
Penglase both starting for us in the 90’s. They possess the “BIG Es”,
Experience and Expertise, which is why they have been a part of the
B.V.F. Management Team for a few years and more than capable to lead us
into the future following the Golden Rule. We’re positive that from
your future conversations with them, you’ll agree that we made the
right choice!
Freddy V.
