Residential & Commercial Builders

Quality is the defining element of every construction project.

At Pimental Contractors, we have been specializing in high-end residential and commercial construction for 15 years.

We are highly experienced in all types of building services including remodeling, renovations, additions, new construction, green building and energy efficient systems. We specialize in coastal locations where our knowledge of ocean front building codes and materials that stand up to coastal weather conditions is invaluable.
