Home Is Where We Started Building
Commercial and Multifamily Construction in Atlanta
Our home market since 1931
Van Winkle has called Atlanta home since 1931, and this is still where most of our work happens. We serve as commercial general Contractors and a commercial construction company for offices, retail, and mixed-use projects, and as multi family general Contractors for apartment builders and developers across the metro. Church builders, senior living operators, and student housing developers all find the same thing here: a crew that has already built in their neighborhood.
One process across every market
Every Atlanta project runs through the same preconstruction process, regardless of market: an honest budget built from real subcontractor pricing, a schedule tracked from groundbreaking to closeout, and a team that treats the relationship as worth protecting long after the ribbon is cut. That approach is why Architects and developers who worked with us on one Atlanta building tend to call again for the next one.
Nine and a half decades in one market
That depth is hard to fake. Van Winkle has been a commercial construction company in Atlanta since 1931, and over that span we've built for Coca-Cola, Delta Air Lines, and Stone Mountain Park alongside the churches, apartment communities, and senior living operators who anchor the metro today. As commercial general Contractors and multi family general Contractors working across offices, retail, apartments, and institutional space, we've watched Atlanta grow from a regional hub into one of the busiest construction markets in the Southeast, and our team has grown with it without ever moving the headquarters. For an Owner, that longevity means the people pricing a project are the same ones who have delivered similar work here for years, and the subcontractor relationships behind a bid run just as deep. Whether the job is a ground-up build or work alongside commercial renovation Contractors on an occupied property, the plan is built around the client's operations from the first budget conversation forward.
Van Winkle in Metro Atlanta
Atlanta is where Van Winkle Construction was founded in 1931, and it's still home to our headquarters on Commerce Drive. Across nine and a half decades we've built for Coca-Cola, Delta Air Lines, and Stone Mountain Park, alongside the churches, apartment communities, and senior living operators who call this market home today. Headquartered a few miles from the city center, our team has watched Atlanta grow from a regional hub into one of the busiest construction markets in the Southeast, and we've grown with it, adding project types and capabilities without ever moving the office.
Featured Atlanta Projects
Atlanta is where we started, and it is still where most of our crews clock in every morning. Churches, apartments, student housing, senior living — much of it within an hour of the office, and much of it for Owners who came back to us a second and third time.

Atlanta Construction Questions
What commercial construction services are offered in Atlanta, GA?
Van Winkle provides commercial construction across Metro Atlanta as both a general Contractor and construction manager at risk, handling everything from office and retail buildouts to ground-up commercial projects.
How much does commercial construction cost in Atlanta, GA?
Cost depends on the project's size, scope, and delivery method. We build a realistic budget during preconstruction, before ground is broken, so there are no surprises once the project is underway.
How long does it take to complete a commercial construction project in Atlanta?
Timelines vary by project type and size. A detailed schedule comes out of preconstruction planning, and we track it closely throughout the build to keep the project on pace.
What permits are required for commercial construction in Atlanta, GA?
Permit requirements depend on the project and its location within the metro. Our preconstruction team handles the permitting process as part of managing the project from concept to completion.
Why choose a local Atlanta commercial construction company over a national firm?
We've been building in Atlanta since 1931. That means relationships with local subcontractors, familiarity with area permitting offices, and a track record clients can verify around town.
