Banks Construction Company is a third generation heavy highway contractor, servicing the Lowcountry of SC. Headquartered in North Charleston, with asphalt plants in both North Charleston and Summerville, Banks is deeply rooted in the community and has been in business for over 75 years.
Under its current leadership, Banks Construction’s focus on safety, both for employees and the public, is the number one objective. Banks has a clear emphasis on quality, innovation and timely completion of projects. Banks’ scope of work includes asphalt paving, heavy civil site work, and supplying asphalt and recycled materials. This scope requires Banks to stay on top of all industry innovations.
While Banks Construction Company still holds to our founding traditional values, we continue to seek innovative ideas that provide our customers with an even greater value. As the asphalt industry changes, we intend to maintain our leadership position as the asphalt paving and heavy civil contractor of choice.
