Savannah, GA — Elkins Constructors, Inc. is excited to announce the opening of its new office in the Manger Building at 7 East Congress Street, in the heart of downtown Savannah. According to Matt Welch, President and Chief Operating Officer of Elkins the decision to establish a permanent address in Savannah represents an opportunity to bring our construction experience to a progressive metropolitan area. “We feel that Savannah is a great match for our corporate culture. The strategic growth of the city and state were also key factors in our decision to open a Georgia office,” said Welch, a Georgia native and Georgia Institute of Technology graduate.

Elkins has provided construction services in Georgia for many years. Some of Elkins’ most recent projects include a Troop Personnel Training Quarters for the Georgia Air National Guard based in Savannah, Martin’s Famous Pastry Shoppe Production and Distribution Facility in Valdosta, Echols County K-8 School in Statenville, Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic Church in St. Mary’s and Wal-Mart Supercenter in Grovetown.

Elkins Georgia office is headed by Vice President David Scheele. Scheele is a licensed general contractor with twenty-nine years experience. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Building Construction from Purdue University.

“Becoming part of a new geographic location goes beyond bringing a staff on board to complete a project or two,” said Scheele. “It requires an active presence in the community to develop the local insight necessary to deliver the caliber of work that the Savannah-area expects. Every member of our team looks forward to serving Savannah and the State of Georgia.”
