Our philosophy is simple: Take care of the client first and treat others as they would like to be treated. No project is too large or too small if it’s work a client wants completed.
Core Competencies: Tarlton uses its experience and business maturity to provide outstanding client services for successful construction of new and renovated facilities. We’re skilled at fulfilling clients’ needs through design-build delivery, lean construction, integrated project delivery, construction management, and as a general contractor. Tarlton self-performs a portion of the work we manage: Our skilled tradespersons include Laborers, Iron Workers, Carpenters, Operating Engineers, Teamsters and Cement Masons. We excel in concrete construction and restoration of all types.
We are committed to sustainable construction and business operations, with 18 LEED projects to our credit, including the first LEED building in St. Louis, as certified by the U.S. Green Building Council. Our corporate headquarters, opened in 2004, is LEED Silver.
