Our Story

Gonzales Construction was incorporated on July 3, 1986, by Armand Gonzales, who remains President today. What began with smaller projects of $100,000 has grown into a full-service design-build operation handling complex projects ranging from $5 million to $28 million.

Over nearly four decades, our knowledge has evolved alongside industry changes and economic development throughout Southern California. Today, Gonzales Construction operates as a comprehensive metal building contractor, partnering with architects, general contractors, and project owners to develop new construction, facility expansions, and design renovations.

Our reputation is built on fair dealings, competitive bidding, and meeting deadlines. We do not simply maintain this reputation; we work to strengthen it with every project, understanding that our clients’ success is the foundation of our own.

Our Approach to Partnership

Single-Source Accountability

One contract, one point of contact, one team responsible for delivering your complete metal building solution on schedule and within budget.

We manage the entire project lifecycle, including design and engineering, cost estimating, procurement, construction management, on-site supervision, and project closeout.

Whether serving as prime contractor or specialized subcontractor, we adapt our approach to match your project structure and contracting requirements.

If the client is not satisfied, neither are we. Our commitment extends beyond contract completion to ensuring every project meets both your standards and our demanding internal requirements.

What We Deliver

In-house expertise in metal building design with the ability to collaborate with your architects or bring in specialized design partners. We use American Buildings Company TALON estimating software and BIM technology for accurate preliminary planning.

 Feasibility analysis, plan review, engineering coordination, and code compliance verification before construction begins.

Construction scheduling using Primavera software, on-site supervision, subcontractor coordination, and quality control throughout project execution.

Complete documentation, warranty coordination, and final inspections to ensure smooth handover.
