What We Do

"We build stuff." What once started as a funny tagline has become our true mantra. Whether it's a state-of-the-art medical facility, an affordable housing complex, a stadium, a concert hall, or a Class-A office building--we've built it. We love building challenging projects that improve the lives of our community members.

Who We Are

We're a tight-knit group of hard-working professionals united by our shared values. We're proud to have worked on some of Charlottesville's most-beloved landmarks, including UVA's Scott Stadium and the Ting Music Pavilion.

Do the Right Thing

Construction projects may be complicated, but our philosophy is simple. We treat our customers, trade partners, and employees with respect. We speak honestly and openly. We give our customers everything they need and nothing they don't. That's the Martin Horn way, and it's served us well for over 40 years.

Testimonials

I was not only pleased with the work, but with the people. You have some unbelievable people working for you, you really do. Everybody was commenting on how hard they worked and how well they took care of us. They communicated with us. Just phenomenal people.

They were careful with what they were doing. They were so professional. They were present and took pride in their work.

If they told you they were going to be there, they’d be there.

We are so very blessed to have had these people come and help us. I’d keep them here forever if I could. You just don’t find that mentality in people anymore. We’ve had other people in and out of here fixing things, and it just wasn’t the same-the difference between your people is huge.

Testimonials

Two things rarely spoken during a construction project are – ‘on-time’ and ‘within budget’.  To say this project is a success would be an understatement. It’s a monumental achievement. BIG received its Certificate of Occupancy on February 15th, exactly 3 weeks ago today and well in advance of the original date of April 24th. So, we were not just on time, we actually finished 63 days ahead of schedule.  And we were under budget by 8%.  This remarkable feat is due to the unwavering effort of some truly great partners...most especially Martin Horn.  

The team of Martin Horn in known for delivering exceptional work and they certainly did not disappoint here.  Personally, I think they undeniably boast one of the hands down coolest and most fitting slogans – “We Build Stuff.” It's succinct, yet informative and accurate…as demonstrated by the facility we're standing in today. Martin Horn did an outstanding job in ensuring the smooth progress of this project, thanks to their project team.
