About Us

There is one reason why The Circle Group in 2007 was picked as the top wall/ceiling specialty contractor in the Southeastern United States by McGraw Hill's Southeast Construction trade magazine.

To be number one in a business where you're only as good as your last project, you have to do exceptional work on each and every project you take on. And our exceptional work can be seen on some of the biggest and most challenging construction projects around: the Omni Hotel at the CNN Center in Atlanta, Regent Tower in Atlanta, Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas, Duke University Medical Center in Durham, N.C.; and many, many others.

What's the secret to exceptional performance project after project? If you know anything about the construction business, you know there's only one answer, a truth we live with every day:

A company can't do exceptional work without exceptional employees.

At The Circle Group, our focus is on hiring, developing and retaining good people. We do this by recruiting the best, rewarding ability and performance, promoting from within, developing and implementing a continuing education program, providing the opportunity to travel and relocate if desired, and by simply taking the time to listen to what's important to our people.

Since the Company's founding in 1993, this has allowed us to build a core group of leaders and dedicated staff who are not afraid to take on the toughest construction challenges in the business.

Here is the Mission Statement set out in The Circle Group employee handbook:

"To provide interior construction services to our clients that are superior in all respects through a commitment to professionalism, service, quality, integrity and safety."

Professionalism. Service. Quality. Integrity. Safety.

Those words, we suppose, set out a kind of creed. The trick is, however, that you can't mandate that someone live by a creed just by saying so and ordering it. Employees have to believe in the words from The Circle Group Mission Statement in their gut. Belief cannot be faked.

So how do you get an employee invested in a belief?

You do it by treating the employee with respect.

You do it by paying an employee fairly.

You do it by offering an employee comprehensive health care and 401(k) participation.

You do it by acknowledging individuals that have performed exceptionally, and then rewarding them publicly with our company's annual outstanding achievement awards.

You do it by taking a raw laborer and bringing him up through the ranks until he's a supervisor.

You do it with raises and bonuses to deserving individuals that have grown and contributed to the company's success.

At the end of the day, an employee becomes invested in a core belief when he or she is treated the way his boss would himself wish to be treated.

At The Circle Group, we live and die by our employees. We salute their loyalty and respect, and hope to repay that every day we're in business.
