Work with a general contractor who values your craft.
We know that the best subcontractors have options, and we work hard to be the general contractor they want to build with. As a 100% employee-owned company, every project manager, superintendent, and estimator at A.R. Mays has a personal stake in the success of every project — which means organized jobsites, clear communication, professional coordination, and a team that respects the people doing the work.
Safety isn't a policy. It's a promise.
Everyone on our jobsites goes home safe. That's the expectation. We'll do our part to create a safe environment. We expect you to uphold it.
Safety Is Not Negotiable
Everyone on an A.R. Mays jobsite goes home safe. That's not a policy posted on a trailer wall — it's a commitment that drives how we plan, staff, and manage every project. We maintain rigorous site-specific safety programs, conduct regular toolbox talks and safety audits, and expect every trade partner and their crews to uphold the same standard from day one.
What We Expect From Our Trade Partners
We hold our trade partners to the same safety standards we hold ourselves to. All workers must be properly trained, equipped with appropriate PPE, and compliant with OSHA regulations before stepping onto any A.R. Mays jobsite. We conduct jobsite orientations for every project and maintain zero tolerance for unsafe behavior. Our goal is simple — a safe, professional, and organized work environment on every project, every day.
