About

Relationships first, results always

What we've built isn't just a business

It's a reputation, one project at a time.

Jackson Construction started in 1984 at a kitchen table in Quitman, Texas, where the Jackson family built the company on a simple belief: doing right by people is enough of a business plan. Forty years later, we're still headquartered in Quitman, with offices in the Dallas and San Antonio areas serving North, East, Central, and South Texas.

Our work spans the public and private sectors, including school districts, city and county governments, businesses, religious facilities, colleges and universities, and the State of Texas. A 95% repeat-client rate shows the approach still works. Across four offices, across four decades, that's still how we operate: relationships first, results always.

Safety

Prioritizing safety since 1984. When safety comes first, quality follows, schedules stay on track, and every project is built on a stronger foundation.

Safety is more than a checklist, it’s a commitment to our employees, trade partners, clients and the communities we serve. Every project is carefully planned with safety in mind. Through ongoing training, job site evaluations, and open communication, we foster a culture where everyone takes ownership of creating a safe environment.
