Read MoreAt T&T Construction, we view our team members as more than employees. In our minds, they’re our partners, our biggest asset and the reason we’re able to carry out the work we love.

Read MoreAt T&T Construction, our team is always glad to discuss the important role foundations play in protecting companies’ buildings, people and operations as a whole. Still, the problem with foundations is, they’re largely invisible. Once a slab is set and the building is up, few people think

Read MoreAt T&T Construction, we could go on for days about the important role foundations play. And trust us, we have. Foundations provide a solid place to start a project. They give you something to build on, and they support you along the way. In our minds, however, it shouldn’t end with concrete. We believe that
Read MoreAt T&T Construction we use a wide range of building materials to get our customers’ jobs done. Still, you might call concrete our medium of choice. If you pay a visit to our Concrete Building Construction page, for instance,
Read MoreYou know who T&T Construction is, and you know what we do. One question remains, however — where do we do it? While we could suffice it to say that our company proudly offers quality construction services throughout the Houston area, we’ll be the first to admit that Houston is a big place.

Still, when Mother Nature throws in seasonal obstacles — namely, her blistering summer heat — it can place companies’ prized personnel in harm’s way.
Read MoreWhen you think about T&T Construction, what comes to mind? Foundation work? Machine bases? Our volumetric mixers? Any one of those would be a perfectly fine response.

Read MoreYou’ve been there. We’ve all been there. That moment when you wake up early on a day off and give the car a much-needed wash, or schedule your morning around plans to mow the lawn — only to have gray skies and pouring rain throw everything out the window. It’s an inconvenience, to be sure, but for the most part it doesn’t do much harm. When those storms roll in while you’re in the midst of major construction projects, however, it’s another story entirely.
Read MoreAt T&T Construction, we believe in open communication. New builds and repairs are a big decision — not to mention a hefty investment — for a company, and we think everyone benefits from the peace of mind that comes when both the contractor and client are fully informed. In fact, we like to get the conversation started long before a contract is even signed. It all begins with our free estimate process.
Read MoreYou’ve probably heard the adage that actions speak louder than words. It makes sense. After all, the only way to accomplish something — to bring real change — is to get out there and do something about the situation at hand. Right? At T&T, we’re all for getting our hands dirty. But we’re also a Houston construction company that believes words carry their share of importance. That’s the thinking that led to our new T&T tenets sign.

Read MoreMixing concrete is key to many construction projects. It’s the starting-off point. A project’s foundation. The beginning of something great. Still, the seemingly simple task can sometimes feel as if it brings more headaches — and out-of-pocket expense — than it’s worth. At T&T Construction, we’re all about making life better for those we serve. We are proud to say that, yes, there is a cost-effective way to mix small batches. Our volumetric mixers can help.
