Over the last two decades, the construction industry has slowly evolved as it promotes diversity in the workplace. Nevertheless, it remains one of the most male-dominated industries in the world with women making up just 10% of the total number of workers in the industry. At Dow Smith Company, we understand that women bring tremendous value to our team. Their fresh perspective allows us to find solutions to challenges we might not ordinarily find, and their attention to detail is exemplary.
When planning a new commercial or retail facility, one of the first decisions you’ll face is whether to pursue ground-up construction or to build out an existing structure. Each approach has its own set of advantages and challenges, and the choice ultimately depends on your specific business needs, budget, timeline, and long-term goals.
