A few years back, a Southlake homeowner called us mid-project. Their previous general contractor had walked off the job, left permits unresolved, and taken a deposit with them. The home was framed but exposed to the elements. Subcontractors were owed money. The family was living in a rental.
Within 48 hours, Fast General Contracting was on site. Within six months, they were home. That story is not unusual. In 30+ years of working as a general contractor in the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas, we have seen what happens when construction goes wrong. We have spent those same 30+ years building the systems, relationships, and team to make sure it goes right. If you are looking for a general contractor who handles projects the way they should be handled, on time, on budget, and with no surprises, you have found the right company.
Fast General Contracting is a full-service general contractor. We handle commercial construction, residential construction, tenant improvements, office build-outs, design-build projects, and everything in between. Our projects range from $50,000 commercial renovations to $5M+ luxury custom homes and large-scale commercial ground-up builds. Whatever the scope, the standard is the same: commercial-grade project management, transparent pricing, and single-source accountability from the first call through final inspection.

When people search for a general contractor in the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas, they are usually dealing with one of two situations.

We hire and manage subcontractors, coordinate material deliveries, manage the permit process, handle inspections, track the budget in real time, and report to you weekly so you always know exactly where your project stands.

North Texas is one of the most active commercial construction markets in the country right now. Corporate relocations, population growth, and strong business formation across the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas drive demand for office buildings, restaurants, warehouses, retail centers, and industrial facilities at a pace that shows no signs of slowing. Fast General Contracting has been building commercial projects throughout this market for over 30 years, and we know this market the way only a local contractor can.
Our commercial construction services cover every building type and project scale. We build ground-up commercial facilities from site preparation through certificate of occupancy, manage large commercial renovation programs, and handle every phase of the construction process under single-source accountability. The same commercial-grade project management discipline we apply to a $500K office build-out applies to a $10M ground-up commercial facility.
Our commercial general contracting work throughout the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas includes office buildings, restaurants, hotels, schools, hospitals, retail centers, warehouses, distribution facilities, multi-family developments, and industrial construction. We also specialize in tenant improvements and office build-outs for commercial property owners and tenants throughout the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas.
If you are a developer, property owner, or business owner looking for a commercial general contractor in the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas, call us at 817-995-5004. We are available Monday through Friday.
Building a home in Keller or Colleyville is not the same as building one in Frisco or Westlake. Lot configurations, soil conditions, HOA requirements, municipal permitting timelines, and buyer expectations all vary significantly across communities in the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas. After 30+ years of residential construction throughout North Texas, we know these differences well enough that they rarely surprise us on a project.
Fast General Contracting builds luxury custom homes in the $1M–$5M range throughout the DFW metroplex, delivering commercial-grade construction management, design-build capability, and elite craftsmanship on every residential project we build. Our residential construction services include custom home building, luxury home building, new home construction, multi-family residential, room additions, and whole-home renovation.
Most luxury custom home builders in the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas are residential-only. Fast General Contracting brings 30+ years of owner general contracting and construction experience to every home we build, applying the same budget discipline, subcontractor accountability, and schedule performance that large commercial projects demand. The result is a custom home construction experience that is genuinely different from what typical residential builders deliver.
We serve luxury residential communities throughout the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas including Southlake, Westlake, Colleyville, Keller, Trophy Club, Flower Mound, Frisco, McKinney, Prosper, Aledo, and many others in between.
When a Hurst property manager called us last spring, their anchor tenant was moving in 90 days. The space was a raw shell — concrete floors, exposed ceiling, no partitions, no restrooms. Ninety days is tight for a full tenant improvement build-out. We delivered it in 78.
Tenant improvements are one of our most active commercial construction service lines throughout the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas, and one where schedule performance matters most. Tenants have lease commencement dates, equipment delivery schedules, and staff move-in plans that cannot shift. A general contractor who misses a TI deadline creates a cascade of real financial consequences for everyone involved.
Fast General Contracting manages complete tenant improvement construction for office spaces, retail build-outs, restaurants, medical offices, and industrial facilities throughout the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas. Our TI services cover full shell space build-outs, partial renovation of existing tenant spaces, and complete interior reconfiguration programs. We manage every trade: framing, drywall, flooring, ceiling systems, lighting, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and finish work, all under single-source project management.
Our office build-out services include open concept conversion, conference room construction, reception area design-build, server room construction, and complete corporate office renovation.
Fast General Contracting offers complete design-build services. With Fast, you have one company managing architectural design and construction from concept through completion. For clients who want a single point of accountability from the first sketch through the final inspection, our design-build delivery eliminates the coordination gap between designer and builder that consistently produces cost overruns and schedule delays.
For projects requiring licensed structural engineering, we coordinate with our established network of professional engineers throughout the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas, managing structural analysis, foundation design, load-bearing system engineering, and complete structural documentation as part of our integrated project management process. Our structural engineering coordination ensures that engineering is seamlessly integrated with construction rather than managed as a separate parallel process.
Two things kill more construction projects than anything else: poor project management and permitting surprises. Fast General Contracting has spent 30+ years building systems that address both.
Our construction management services cover every phase of project oversight: pre-construction planning, budget development, subcontractor procurement, schedule management, quality control, safety compliance, and project closeout. Every client receives weekly written progress reports with photographic documentation, real-time budget tracking, and direct access to their project manager throughout construction.
Permitting timelines vary significantly across municipalities in the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas; what takes two weeks in one city can take eight weeks in another.

Storm season in North Texas is real. Hail, high winds, tornadoes, and flash flooding cause significant structural damage to commercial and residential properties throughout the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas every year. When it happens, property owners need a general contractor they can trust to assess the damage honestly, scope the restoration accurately, and deliver complete results, not a surface-level patch job.
Fast General Contracting is a full-scope insurance restoration contractor serving commercial and residential property owners throughout the DFW metroplex and surrounding North Texas areas.
