GBCA’s 2020 Construction Excellence Award Winner

We are excited to announce that D.M. Sabia & Co., Inc. has won the GBCA’s 2020 Construction Excellence Award for “Best Specialty Contractor Project”.

The Best Specialty Contractor Project Award recognizes a project that has demonstrated the exceptional application of construction practices including, but not limited to, innovation and technology, design, efficiency, budgeting, and client services. This is special and innovative work in support of a General Contractor or Construction Manager. This award is intended for a specialty contractor who supplies essential needs for a project.

Our winning project was The Commons at Villanova University.

Complete with six residential buildings that house more than 1,100 students, light retail space and a restaurant, the Villanova Commons is the largest masonry job in the history of the region, according to the Philadelphia Masons Union. Putting concerns to rest that the job was too big for one mason, D.M. Sabia & Co., Inc. met the monumental task and delivered “old-school” quality with more than 150 masons, laborers and operating engineers on site at peak times. The overall volume and quality of stonework throughout the Commons is a sight to behold.

We share this award with our outstanding partners on this project.
