Company Story

Southers Construction began as a one-man show back in 2012. It was a dream had by a single man and his family. Ricky Southers, a U.S. Marine, began door-knocking and selling his own repair work in his local community.

After about four years of hard work and dedication, combined with strategic business moves, Ricky was able to begin hiring crews to support his work. It was at this time that he doubled his business output by continuing his quality workmanship and marketing strategies.

Two years later after putting his nose to the grind and six years after starting his one-man repairs, Ricky Southers saw his company finally take off. Since 2018 Mr. Southers has been able to support his local community by offering tremendous job opportunities and quality service.

Today Southers Construction is a growing, fast-paced, family-owned company. Here at Southers Construction, it is our mission to provide superior service to the Seacoast area and beyond. We currently service 3 states and are continuously expanding our territory.

Through our quality work, we offer lifetime workmanship warranties on all our projects. We pride ourselves on solely using American manufactured products. It is our aim here at Southers Construction to not only use quality products but to ensure flawless craftsmanship.
