Pre-Construction Advisory Services
Showing you how early investment in strategy always delivers higher value in the end.
Poor Construction Planning Wastes Precious Time and Money.
Owners and businesses often try to do too much on their own and hire general contractors before understanding what is really needed to accomplish their construction objectives. These all-too-common mistakes lead to:
- Painful delays
- Work stoppages
- Unexpected regulatory challenges
- Expensive change orders
At Hurd, we take work off your plate, balancing the whirlwind of communication with realtors, landlords, architects, town officials and contractors while developing a comprehensive, efficient, and cost-effective construction project plan.

Recent Florida Projects
National Construction
Luckily, when faced with the challenge of rebranding, we already had an established, trusted partner in place who could handle the concurrent renovations of all 14 of our Florida retail dispensaries. Adding how 2021 was a unique year with pandemic-related challenges, Hurd’s depth throughout Florida helped alleviate many of those pressures. They were consistently strong throughout the entire process and very active in solving issues each step of the way.
B the Bakery
All the right questions were asked. Brandon has a really great way of explaining things in layman’s terms which was invaluable to me as the business owner. Hurd Construction Management was very easy to work with and I cannot say enough for all the people that worked on our project.
Surterra Wellness Florida
Our company faces many unique business challenges and I have found great value in identifying and cultivating the best possible relationships. Hurd Construction Management is one of these partners. I have seen nothing but responsiveness and good intention in all of their work and personal interactions. Amongst the competition, Hurd stands above them all and demonstrates the work ethic of a national firm.
Club Pilates
Unbelievable experience. I challenged Hurd with a tight deadline, and they rose to the occasion. They consistently stayed ahead of schedule and adjusted to make changes quickly. Opening a new business is difficult, but Hurd managed to make the construction the easiest part. I will definitely use them again.
Peterbrooke Chocolate Factory
They gave me a lot of good advice and the quality of their people and contractors gave me a lot of comfort. Hurd is definitely part of the local Tampa community. They were professional, timely and affordable. I could not be more pleased with how things turned out.
Columbia Care
Hurd stepped up during our expansion into Florida, when we also had a broad national expansion already underway. Aligning with a provider that could bring intimate knowledge of the Florida market and resources to assist our team was important to us. Hurd jumped right in, helped us streamline site selection and brought a lot of value to our construction planning. Their advice and professional assistance was very helpful and their versatility to self-perform general contracting in several markets simplified things while providing additional assurance.
