What Our Clients Say
Numerous challenges faced and overcome
"I saw firsthand many of the numerous challenges that Pinkard and the entire construction team had to face and ultimately overcome. These challenges were frequent occurences, and involved portions of the existing 40-year old concrete structure interfering with planned construction. Pinkard was always conscientious about communicating field issues, putting together detailed as-builts to clarify the changes, and to diligently work to sequence and oversee subcontractor performance. Thanks to all members of your team who made so many important contributions to the success of this project."
Tight construction site and on time
"Most people did not feel a stadium could be constructed in the tight quarters that were available, let alone get a majority of the construction done in time for the lacrosse season. We appreciate everything Pinkard did in working with our athletic staff to make sure the lacrosse season was a success in the new Barton Stadium Our coaches, players and staff are very proud of the stadium and how it turned out. Thanks to Pinkard Construction in making the University of Denver home of the only dedicated college lacrosse stadium in the country."
Caring personal touch
"There are so many things that get lost (with the big construction companies). with the structure of the bigger guys, you lose out on the personal touch. that’s the benefit you get with Pinkard, the caring, the communication. it’s not just another project. the big companies don’t have that personal touch, it’s just another assignment."
Project of the highest quality
"On behalf of the University of Denver, I am pleased to recognize the outstanding work of Pinkard Construction in successfully constructing the very challenging Peter Barton Lacrosse Stadium. Pinkard and the project team have produced a project that is of the highest quality."
