Overview
Hughes Brothers Construction builds roads, underground utilities and prepared sites for public agencies and private developers in Central Florida. Its own crews clear land, shape terrain, install water and sewer lines, manage drainage, and prepare pavement for residential communities, commercial properties and industrial developments. The contractor combines these stages under one site development operation, working with engineers to address clay soils, high groundwater and steep changes in elevation. It earns revenue through construction contracts, building the infrastructure that later building construction depends on. Hughes Brothers Construction is headquartered in Wildwood, Florida.
