Built on Discipline. Delivered on Time.

Old Ironsides Construction is a Kern County based commercial and public works contractor focused on design-build and complex, schedule-driven projects. With a B General Building and C-8 Concrete license, we deliver ground-up facilities, structural and site concrete packages, and major renovations for private owners and public agencies throughout Kern County and the surrounding counties.

We are builders first. Our in-house crews self-perform critical structural and enclosure trades, including concrete, framing, and lath/plaster. Controlling these scopes on site is what allows us to commit to tighter schedules, fewer change orders, and cleaner closeouts on multi-million-dollar projects.

Early in the Room

As we continue to grow, our focus is clear: be the contractor that owners and design teams want in the room early. On design-build and CM/GC projects, we lean in on:

• Preconstruction & Design Support — budgeting, phasing, constructability review, and value engineering that align scope with budget before drawings are final.
• Transparent Communication — direct, unfiltered updates so owners, architects, engineers, and inspectors always know where the project stands.
• Operational Discipline — rigorous planning, safety, and quality control that keep work predictable from groundbreaking through punch list.

Our culture is built on three values:

• Relentless Pursuit of Excellence — we expect to be measured against the best contractors on every job and plan accordingly.
• Brutal Honesty — we tell the truth early, especially when it is uncomfortable, so problems get solved while they are still cheap.
• Ironclad Integrity — we protect our clients' time, money, and trust as if they were our own.
