Prime Contractor Services

Coordinating Complex Building Systems. Safely, Efficiently, and Without Disruption.

When your project involves more than roofing, Port steps in as a prime contractor to manage mechanical, electrical, plumbing, life safety systems, lightning protection systems, door and window modifications, fire protection, and other roof related scopes tied to the building envelope.
