Patriot Construction

My name is Paul Harms & I received my baptism by fire in the strictest construction market in the country (California) where painting requires a license (seriously) and it seemed like a permit was required to put up masking (joking, but you get the idea). I worked my way through college in the mid-80s doing drywall, tape & float & texture. Over the years I picked up other skills by working for free in trades I wanted to learn. In 1989, I hired on with a commercial construction company where I eventually worked up to project manager. It probably helped that I was married to the daughter of the owner. In 1993, it got awkward with divorce pending & I went to work at another company. In 2001, I took on a partner and we started our own company. In 2016, I had had enough of the California beauracracy and moved to the Austin area.  Patriot Construction specializes in Tenant Improvements, Finish Outs, Office Interiors. Self performed trades include (but are not limited to): drywall, tape & float, painting, framing, flooring & finish Carpentry. We love projects that require "MacGuyver work" and use a mix of sub-contractors & in-house employees to keep things on schedule.
