Our Approach

Our Story

"As an educator and administrator of a private school, I was not trained to oversee the construction of a large facility so I needed to find a contractor who I could trust. I am very grateful that our Board of Directors chose a person who is trustworthy, efficient and cooperative. Tom Haught and the people he employs at R.T. contractors allowed us to build a school that met our budget needs, fit our time frame (which was not easy for them because we got started late) and produce a quality building."

"RT Construction has provided quality workmanship with this unique project. They have communicated and worked well with the owners to complete the project within the schedule set forth. They have been fair, responded to owner concerns and needs, and provided great leadership among the sub-contractors."

Principal
Bellwood Antis School District

"One of the main distinctions between R.T. Contracting and most General Contractors is their leadership ability. Their job superintendents are very knowledgeable and responsive. They take their role as the lead contractor very serious and they do an excellent job at coordinating the entire project, not just their work. I strongly believe that they can handle much larger projects and I would recommend them to any Owner."

"Saint Francis University has continuously utilized RT Contracting as a general contractor for university facility projects. One of our most recent projects was the renovation of The Schwab School of Business. This major renovation not only came in on budget, but also was completed before the anticipated project deadline; this was no small task with a challenging timeline and a budget of more than $7 million. Saint Francis University has also utilized RT Contracting for smaller projects such as residence hall renovations, athletic field enhancements, and general construction needs."
