Full-service commercial construction and concrete capabilities for public and private owners across Indiana.
R. Chavez Construction provides a complete range of commercial construction services — from traditional general contracting to owner advocacy and design coordination. Our team has experience across K–12 education, higher education, municipal facilities, non-profit organizations, commercial office, retail, and faith-based construction. Whatever the delivery method, we bring the same standard: honest communication, financial discipline, and accountability from bid to closeout.
R. Chavez Construction is a certified MBE with the State of Indiana and the City of Indianapolis. When we serve as your prime general contractor, your MBE participation requirement is met at the contract level — not through a subcontractor workaround.
As general contractor, we manage every aspect of your project — from preconstruction planning and subcontractor procurement through construction, quality control, and owner turnover. We self-perform concrete and coordinate all trades to keep your project on schedule and within budget.
Learn MoreIn a CM role, we serve as the owner's trusted advisor throughout the project lifecycle — from design review and budgeting through trade selection and construction oversight. CM at-risk and CM as agent are both available.
Learn MoreNot every owner has an in-house construction department. As your Owner's Representative, we manage the GC relationship, review RFIs and submittals, monitor schedule and budget, and keep you informed at every milestone.
Learn MoreDesign-Build consolidates design and construction under a single contract — reducing risk, compressing schedule, and creating one point of accountability. We partner with qualified architects and engineers to deliver integrated teams.
Learn MoreConcrete is where R. Chavez Construction started, and it remains a core competency. Led by Brian Chavez, our Concrete Division self-performs structural and flatwork concrete on our own GC projects and as a specialty subcontractor for other GCs — across commercial, multifamily, self-storage, structural, and site scopes.

If you're an architect or engineer working on commercial, institutional, or municipal projects in Indiana, we'd like to earn a spot on your preferred contractor list. We've built a reputation among design partners for things that don't show up in a bid form: we read the drawings before we price them, we flag constructability issues during design when they're still cheap to fix, and we don't let RFIs pile up.
A GC recommendation from your firm carries weight with the owner. We take that seriously — we show up prepared, we protect your design intent in the field, and we make sure the project you designed is the project that gets built.
Constructability input, cost feedback, and schedule reality checks — before issues become change orders.
We keep the review cycle moving so field work doesn't stop waiting on paper.
If you have an owner looking for an integrated delivery approach, let's put together a team.
Whatever the delivery method, we bring the same standard from bid to closeout.
