Survey Details
As with other contractor lists that Southeast Construction publishes, this one is based on revenue generated during the preceding calendar year. However, firms that were not able to supply information on a calendar-year basis were allowed to submit fiscal-year revenue. These firms are marked with an asterisk.
The format of our ranking is again based on regional revenue totals, meaning the volume of work collected in 2009 from projects located within the magazine’s four-state territory of Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina.
All figures listed in both the main ranking and the breakout listings are based upon online surveys submitted by the listed company. As with all of Southeast Construction’s rankings, specialty contractors must submit a survey in order to be listed.
Firms that were not included this year, and who would like to participate in future rankings, are encouraged to send their contact information to our database manager, Richard Mui, at Richard_Mui@mcgraw-hill.com. As always, however, future online “Top” surveys will be made available to any qualifying firm via our website, www.Southeast.Construction.com, several months prior to deadline.
