University Construction
Construction and renovation services for universities and colleges in Georgia. Licensed, insured, and experienced with campus facility scopes.
Higher-education facility work has its own rhythm — academic calendars, student safety, campus access protocols, and historic-building considerations all shape the project. Catalino Quality Construction supports universities and colleges in Georgia with facility renovation and repair scopes that match our craftsmanship-focused capabilities. We are a licensed Georgia Residential Basic Contractor with the insurance, documentation, and scheduling discipline campus facilities offices expect.
Service Area
We are based in Cobb County and primarily serve campuses in the metro Atlanta region — including institutions like Kennesaw State University, Georgia State University, and other public and private colleges in our travel radius. We will travel for project needs when scope justifies it.
Project Scopes
Our core university scopes include residence hall renovation (room turns, bathroom updates, common-area refresh), academic and administrative office buildouts, finish carpentry and millwork for campus interiors, ADA ramp and railing work, deck and exterior accessibility construction, and small-scope general contracting on facility repair-and-renovation contracts. We coordinate with facilities engineering and project management on scope definition, scheduling, and inspection.
Working Around the Academic Calendar
Campus construction requires sensitivity to academic operations. Most of our higher-ed work concentrates in summer break (mid-May through early August) when residence halls and classrooms are vacant — a window we staff up to deliver compressed-schedule projects before fall move-in. For year-round facility work, we sequence around exams, major events, and student traffic patterns, use after-hours scheduling when needed, and maintain hard barriers and dust containment to keep work zones isolated.
Campus Access and Safety
We follow each institution's contractor onboarding requirements: background checks for crew members on campus, safety orientation, badged access, vehicle and staging area protocols, and compliance with campus parking and delivery rules. Our crew is briefed on each campus's specific rules before mobilization.

Frequently Asked Questions
What university scopes are you best suited for?
We are well-matched to facility renovation and repair, finish carpentry and millwork in offices and academic buildings, residence hall interior renovations, ADA accessibility work within our license scope, deck and ramp construction, and small-to-mid-scope general contracting on campus repair-and-renovation projects. We are not currently pursuing large new-construction or laboratory/clean-room projects.
How do you handle campus access, scheduling, and student safety?
Campus work requires coordination with facilities management, scheduling around academic calendars and student occupancy, secured staging areas, badged-vendor protocols, and clear separation between work areas and student or staff traffic. We follow each institution's contractor onboarding requirements — background checks, safety orientations, and access controls — and schedule disruptive work around exam periods, move-in/move-out, and major campus events.
Can you work during summer break to minimize student impact?
Yes — much of our higher-ed work concentrates in summer when residence halls and classrooms are vacant. We staff to deliver compressed-schedule summer projects and complete them before fall move-in. For year-round work, we sequence around the academic calendar and isolate work zones with hard barriers, dust containment, and after-hours noise restrictions as required.
What credentials do you provide for university vendor onboarding?
Standard vendor onboarding documentation: Georgia contractor license (#RBCO008244, #RBQA008233), Certificate of Insurance with the university named as additional insured, W-9, workers' compensation verification, safety program documentation, OSHA-compliant safety practices, and any institution-specific forms required. Bonding is available per-project as required by the contract.
