Enclos Tops Specialty Contractor Rankings
Amidst a slow year for the construction marketplace, Enclos climbed its way to Southeast Construction’s 2010 Top Specialty Contractor position for the Glazing/Curtainwall sector. The firm’s subcontractor ranking — which includes all specialty trades, not just building skin providers — jumped to 17th this year after recording a 36th place position in 2009.
Enclos posted a $62.21 million regional revenue in 2010, pooled from many high-profile projects including Miami-Dade County standouts 1450 Brickell and Met 2 (shown above).
