About Grand Contracting

A reputation for vast experience, innovation, and excellence in the commercial construction industry

About Us

At Grand Contracting, we believe construction is about more than just buildings. It’s about creating spaces where people live, work, and connect. Based in the Greater Indianapolis area, we bring projects to life across a variety of industries, including multi-family housing, senior living, skilled nursing, behavioral health, and tenant renovations. Every project is different, and we approach each one with the flexibility and expertise needed to meet our clients’ unique needs, whether it’s a single build or a large-scale development. More than delivering a final product, we focus on providing solutions, quality craftsmanship, and a seamless process from start to finish.

Our work is built on one simple but important principle: Build with Integrity. To us, that means being transparent, accountable, and committed to doing things the right way. The success of a project isn’t just measured by what we build, but by the trust we earn along the way. From the first conversation to the final walk-through, we are dedicated to making sure our clients feel confident in every step of the process.

History

Grand Contracting was founded in 2006 by Thomas Smith and Justin Brown, who set out to create a better construction experience—one built on strong relationships, quality work, and a commitment to lasting value. That same year, they also launched Grand Industrial, a sister company specializing in industrial, manufacturing, and food processing construction. While the two companies operate separately, they collaborate to offer a wide range of construction solutions backed by decades of expertise.

In addition to our partnerships with Leo Brown Group and Grand Industrial, we work with third-party developers and property owners to bring their projects to life with precision and efficiency. Our team is dedicated to turning ambitious ideas into reality, executing each project with precision, efficiency, and an unwavering commitment to integrity. At Grand Contracting, we are more than builders. We are partners in progress. Let’s build something extraordinary together.

Hear From Our Clients

"We had the pleasure of engaging Grand for a new construction student housing project in Bloomington, Indiana. As everyone is aware 2020 has been an uncharacteristically challenging year relating to uncertainty in the labor markets, supply chains, and general operating conditions in the construction industry.

Fortunately for us, none of these market conditions affected our project, and it was completed both on time and under budget. Grand and its principals have conducted themselves with the utmost level of professionalism and practicality, forging ahead to deliver a first-class asset for our firm. We are grateful for the relationship with Grand and we look forward to working together with them in the future."

“Working with Grand Contracting has been a true partnership. Their attention to detail, responsiveness, and commitment to delivering high-quality work make them stand out in the industry. We value their integrity and the consistent results they bring to each project.”
