Fountain Construction Company, Inc., based in Jackson, Mississippi, has been a prominent player in the commercial and industrial construction industry since its inception in 1959. Founded by D.G. 'Sonny' Fountain as a residential electrical contracting business, the company quickly expanded its operations and began taking on larger projects. Notable undertakings include significant developments like the Mississippi R&D Center and Baptist Hospital in Jackson, which underscored the company's commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.
Over the past six decades, Fountain Construction has evolved into a full-service general contractor, now boasting a workforce of over 140 skilled tradesmen. The company diversified its offerings by forming Mechanical and General Construction divisions in the 1970s, which allowed it to provide comprehensive construction services tailored to the needs of its clients. The Sheet Metal Fabrication division, established to not only support other operations but also to undertake custom fabrication projects, further solidified Fountain Construction’s capabilities.
In 1985, the company rebranded itself as Fountain Construction Company to better represent its extensive range of in-house services, including concrete, masonry, crane and rigging, and steel erection. This strategic move allowed the company full control over project management, leading to improved project schedules and budget management. Today, Fountain Construction has a stellar reputation for delivering superior quality within various market sectors, facilitating projects from minor service calls to extensive commercial structures such as convention centers and trade halls. Committed to excellence for over 60 years, Fountain Construction continues to prioritize customer satisfaction throughout the state of Mississippi.
