Built on Values. Driven by Excellence.


Founded in 2012 by Roberto Chavez, R. Chavez Construction has grown from a concrete specialty firm into a full-service commercial general contractor trusted by public agencies, school districts, and commercial clients across Indiana. We're not content to stay where we are. Over the next several years, we are deliberately scaling our general contracting operation — deepening our presence in institutional and public-sector construction, expanding our project management team, and building the client relationships and systems required to compete at a significantly higher level.

Our Mission

At R. Chavez Construction, our mission is to provide a pleasurable experience for all clients by delivering exceptional commercial construction and concrete services across Indiana with integrity, quality, professionalism, and attention to detail.

Our Vision

To be the trusted partner of choice for owners, clients, designers, suppliers, and specialty contractors by setting the standard for excellence in construction — defined by speed, safety, professionalism, integrity, and foresight.

Your MBE Requirement. Met at the Prime Level.


R. Chavez Construction is a certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) with both the State of Indiana and the City of Indianapolis. For public school districts, municipal agencies, and state-funded projects, that matters more than most owners realize.

When you contract with R. Chavez as your prime general contractor, your organization's MBE participation requirement is satisfied at the contract level — not buried in a subcontractor tier that's hard to document and harder to verify. No workarounds. No paper compliance. A real MBE company running your project from preconstruction to closeout.

For school districts navigating state and federal procurement rules, municipalities with city diversity spend targets, and any owner required to demonstrate good-faith MBE participation — we make that straightforward.
