Testimonials

“We are very pleased with our new facility. The Emory Hill construction staff was a joy to work with. They were responsive to our needs, worked within our budget constraints, and brought the project in on schedule. Based on my experience, it was clear to me that Emory Hill strives to provide excellent service at all stages of a construction project. Emory Hill was a pleasure to work with, and I would highly recommend them to other companies with construction management needs.”

“I want to tell you what a positive experience it was to work with Emory Hill on the Invista Red Mill project. In particular, the [Project Manager] did an outstanding job of leading the team. He was great to work with, calm under a demanding schedule and very helpful at all times. We are proud to have been part of the team that so successfully met all of the Owner’s requirements to produce a very complex facility. We look forward to working with Emory Hill again on future projects.”

“On behalf of Invista and PME, we would like to commend Emory Hill and Company for their leadership in organizing and managing the renovations of the Red Mill Road facility. The experience of your project manager and field superintendent was instrumental in the success of this project. This was a complex project with a tight schedule which necessitated a well-organized, forward thinking and resourceful leadership team to anticipate, recognize and resolve potential problems. Overall, the project was a huge success and will allow INVISTA to continue their research in a new up-to-date facility. Without the leadership of your project team and support from your home office this would not have been possible. Again, thank you for a job well done.”
-Nicholas W. Maliszewski, Director of Operations at Palmetto Management & Engineering
