Georgetown, DE

Gillis Gilkerson was contracted by The Severn Companies to complete the full renovation of four two-story apartment buildings and ground-up construction of a community center at Dunbarton Station, an apartment complex in Georgetown, Delaware. Additionally, Gillis Gilkerson oversaw the addition of a community playground and campus-wide landscaping upgrades.

The $2.8 million dollar project allowed for increased energy efficiency in terms of doors, windows and appliances in all thirty-two apartment units. Residents remained onsite while Gillis Gilkerson completed the necessary construction and development work. The project was completed in October 2013.

“We have worked with Gillis Gilkerson on a few projects and it has always been a very positive experience,” said Jeff Greenhalgh, representative for The Severn Companies. “Their fantastic work with the Fire Marshal helped us to get our residents moved back in a timely fashion.”

What Our Clients Say

“For a design/build project it is unusual for the initial cost estimates and timing to be maintained and in this case the project was completed on time and the costs were held to the contract level. In going into a design/build project like this, one always wonders if the right decision was made on the contractor selected. Now that the project has been completed, I can say that I know we made the right decision with Gillis Gilkerson.”

“We embarked on a journey to create a state of the art high definition television studio and have completed that mission. The expertise from Gillis Gilkerson in all aspects of the building construction was a blessing as this project has numerous technical and on-air related projects that held the attention of our own staff. Thank you for going the extra step in making this complicated project a complete success for Draper Holdings and the entire Delmarva viewing audience.”

“Throughout the construction phase of this project it was necessary to page a representative from Gillis Gilkerson on a daily basis. I would estimate the average response time for a response was about three minutes. The team was always eager to address any questions or concerns that I had, and when any small problem did arise, they were always fixed quickly and efficiently. In short, there was little disruption of my busy practice and loss of income due to time spent working with the contractor.”

“The best compliment is repeat business. Dwight Miller has earned all of our business over the last 20 years and is always trustworthy and gets things done. If a problem or challenge arises, he will always take care of it.”

~ Dennis Silicato,

“I have not seen anyone as professional and great to deal with than your company and the people work for it, from you [Palmer] to the that person who’s a laborer. I’ll share that from my heart with our community.

THANK YOU!”
