A Vision Rooted in Versatility
From its inception, Paragon Building Corp was built on the foundation of versatility. Bob's initial projects were secured through a long-standing relationship with a neighbor, a facilities engineer at the local GE plant. "Our first few jobs were at GE. As we got stronger and increased our bonding capacity, we started bidding on larger public and private jobs," Bob recounted. This adaptability has allowed Paragon to tackle a wide array of projects, from fire stations and parks to hospitals and jails. "We've done a lot of medical work, not in recent years, but we've done just a huge variety of projects," Bob explained. This diverse portfolio is a testament to Paragon's ability to handle complex and varied construction challenges, setting them apart from many competitors who specialize in niche markets.
Tackling Unique Challenges
One of Paragon's distinguishing features is its willingness to take on difficult and unique projects. Bob's enthusiasm for these challenges is palpable. "We did a job where we rearranged giant rocks in the river to improve a fish ladder," he shared, highlighting the complexity and environmental considerations involved. "It was a tremendously hard project because we had to work in the water and we had to work around the flow of the river and the animals and everything else." Another noteworthy project was building an otter exhibit at Fort Fisher, a remote and logistically challenging site.
