- PRIORITIZE SUSTAINABILITY -
Your home should be as healthy and pollution-free as it is aesthetically pleasing and comfortable to live in. From the proper mitigation of environmental hazards to steering you toward ethically-made and sustainable finishes and fixtures, we're all about lightening our impact on Mother Earth – and your wallet. High-performance choices during your build-out will have a lasting benefit on your home's indoor air quality, and your utility bills.
- PEOPLE MATTER -
Bridge City Contracting is a family-run business, and we treat our clients and employees like family. But not the kind of family that argues about politics – we're more like the kind that loves to get together for Sunday dinner and board games. We get so involved in improving our client's lives; it's hard to say goodbye at the end of the project. There may be tears.
We are committed to an environment of accountability where everyone is responsible for his or her actions and empowered to bring creative ideas and solutions to the table. We support our employees' enrichment interests and offer them continuing education opportunities, competitive wages, and fair scheduling. We value our clients and our employees and foster an environment of mutual respect and recognition.
- INVEST IN COMMUNITY -
Investing in our community through the creation of workforce development curriculum and trade safety training materials is a powerful step towards building a more skilled and resilient workforce. By developing comprehensive training programs, we can equip individuals with the necessary skills and knowledge to excel in various trades. This not only enhances their employability but also ensures that they can perform their jobs safely and efficiently. Such initiatives can lead to a more robust local economy, as well-trained workers are more likely to secure stable employment and contribute positively to their communities.
Providing accessible workshops to high school students at no cost is another crucial aspect of this investment. By offering these workshops, we can introduce young people to the trades at an early age, helping them to explore potential career paths that they might not have considered otherwise. These workshops can cover a range of topics, from basic trade skills to more advanced techniques, and can be tailored to meet the needs and interests of the students. By removing financial barriers, we ensure that all students, regardless of their background, have the opportunity to learn and grow.
Creating events to spark interest in the trades and break stereotypes about what the face of construction looks like is essential for fostering a more inclusive and diverse workforce. These events can showcase the wide range of opportunities available in the trades and highlight the achievements of individuals from diverse backgrounds. By challenging outdated stereotypes and promoting the trades as viable and rewarding career options, we can attract a broader spectrum of talent. This not only benefits the individuals who enter the trades but also strengthens the industry as a whole by bringing in fresh perspectives and ideas.
