Commercial Construction Services

Hearn Construction has offered commercial construction services in Indianapolis and north central Indiana since 1990. As a full-service commercial contractor and commercial builder based in Kokomo, we are qualified to perform each step of a project under one roof, from early planning and design through the finished space. Our clients include owners of restaurants, retail centers, office complexes, medical facilities, churches and schools, and our sister industrial construction work covers plants and warehouses.

A Trusted Leader in Commercial Construction Services

We believe customer service is an important element throughout the construction process. The bulk of our work is done by our own people, and on bigger jobs trusted subcontractors add manpower. We are conscientious about our customers' needs, especially when we work inside occupied buildings where tenants, staff or the public are still coming and going. That steady approach is what has made Hearn a leading name in commercial general contracting across the region.

How Design-Build Works

Design-Build vs. Traditional Construction

Design-build puts design and construction under one contract with one team.

Same three phases, one team.

With design-build, pricing happens while the design is drawn—so there’s no bid, no rebid, and no second contract.

What Our Commercial Building Contractor Team Handles

Our crews cover the trades a commercial project needs: foundations and concrete; wall framing, drywall, windows and doors; electrical, plumbing and lighting systems; tile, hardwood and concrete flooring; cabinets, countertops and storage; acoustic drop ceilings; and repairs after fire, wind and water damage. Having those skills in-house means fewer handoffs and one company answering for the work.

The Bitterness of Poor Quality Outlasts the Sweetness of a Low Price!

Questions & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

More answers on our FAQ page or call (765) 452-2669.

Which service do I need?

If you are starting from scratch and want one team for design and construction, design-build is usually the fit. If you have a space to finish for a tenant, that is a build-out. If the building works but looks or functions dated, that is remodeling. Not sure? Call us and we will talk it through.

Can one team handle design through construction?

Yes. With design-build, one contractor leads the designers, builders and subcontractors for the whole project, so you have a single point of responsibility.
