Design-Build Construction

Establishing early budgets and aligning goals from the onset to ensure faster completion times will allow for significant cost savings across all phases of the design development process.

Innovative Alternative Methods

About Lichtefeld Inc.

Efficient and Cost-Effective Metal Building Solutions

Established in 1918, Lichtefeld Inc. has been a trusted name in construction for over a century. Specializing in commercial and industrial complexes, we proudly serve a variety of industries, including automotive, retail, schools, churches, restaurants, storage, office/warehouse, recreational, public services, and trucking facilities.

Pre-engineered metal buildings, combined with the streamlined design-build method, offer owners an extremely efficient experience. Your project is completed 30% faster than conventional methods. We are also your sole point of responsibility—no more expensive change orders or multiple subcontractors for you to handle.

While we focus on steel building systems, we also excel with conventional steel construction and wood-framed projects. Our experience helps us guide you to the most cost-effective solution for your project. Your budget determines which methods we use.
