It takes integrity & heart.
These are the core principles that have guided the work we do, and the way in which we do it for 20 years. It requires strength of character, consideration, resolve, and teamwork, and fosters a culture of creativity and excellence. We are the men and women of Continental Contractors, and we are reinventing hotel renovation.
A milestone worth celebrating.
“Integrity, heart, and humility. Those three words are what got us to where we are today. That part of Continental has never changed. After 20 years in the hospitality renovation industry, that’s what I’m most proud of. And I’m really excited to see where those core values continue to take this company.”
– Pete Welch, President + CEO
Great spaces. Big impact.
We believe that every space has the capacity to inspire. As general contractors, everything we do is focused on creating great spaces to serve the people who use them. Our comprehensive services touch every aspect of hotel renovation: pre-construction services, project management, construction, delivery, and project closeout. Ever mindful of the business of hospitality, we take extra care to keep noise levels low, equipment out of sight, levels of communication high, and your RevPar intact.
Many talk about work ethic, but we live it. We are constantly at work behind the scenes to make sure each project goes smoothly, and creates the desired impact. Our core values and culture are the cornerstones of each project: act with integrity; consistently improve processes; promote innovation, agility, and fresh ideas; deliver excellence; communicate openly and often; and respect the environment.
We’re not afraid to get our hands dirty.
On site we do what it takes. Hotel renovation work has to be quick and precise. We make it easy for hotel staff and guests, working on specific sections of the hotel in the least disruptive ways. Working within tight timeframes. Taking care of business as it comes up. Sweating the details so that you don’t have to.
I have worked with Continental for over 10 years, and they have been a reliable resource over those years. They provide many qualified project managers who are very team oriented. One of the best attributes of Continental is they stand behind their work. They have the expertise and flexibility to handle small to very large projects ranging from room renovations to publics space projects. I thoroughly enjoy working with them and will again in the future.”
—Michael Hayden, Principal, Hayden Management Services
Been there. Done that. We manage every detail.
Creating a big impact starts with the smallest of details. From beautiful painting and wallcovering to precise tile installation and custom millwork to installing state-of-the-art lighting, we go the extra mile. How? Communication. Teamwork. Craftsmanship.
Whatever your project requires: updated technology in Houston; eco-friendly solutions in San Diego; value engineering without sacrificing quality in Phoenix; big impact public spaces in Boston; relaxing, subdued, great rooms in Dallas; a grand terrazzo staircase in Atlanta; beautifully refreshed suites in Washington, D.C., upgraded guest rooms and corridors in Cincinnati; and more in Miami, we’ve done it.
The trust factor.
After moving through the ranks of the hotel renovation industry for nearly 20 years, Pete Welch was determined to create a new kind of hospitality renovation company — one that worked smarter. It needed to be accessible to owners, project managers, architects, designers, and hotel personnel, and serve every customer with integrity. He knew that if this new company did a good job, they would be invited back again. He was right.
Today, Continental Contractors is a thriving business with a reputation for team excellence, a family-like atmosphere, great service, reliability, and, well, hospitality. A true understanding of the issues and opportunities hotels face underlies every project. We delight in collaborating with hotel and resort property owners and managers to overcome the challenges and meet the evolving technological and aesthetic needs of savvy business travelers and luxury guests. Today, with offices on both coasts, we work in all markets throughout the United States, managing each project with creativity, integrity, and heart.
