Testimonials

As the old saying goes, when skill and passion are combined, you can create a masterpiece. That is what was created in the Cathedral of St. James. I have managed many construction projects in my career but none like this. The overall care exhibited by your staff and subcontractors in building this Cathedral was second to none. The Cathedral project was an exemplary achievement in risk management, schedule and logistics control. On behalf of the Diocese of Orlando and the Cathedral of St. James, we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for being such a team player and partner in completing this outstanding project.

Antonio Aguerrevere
Senior Director of Design & Construction Services, Diocese of Orlando

I have been involved in numerous projects over the years but I don’t recall a time I have been more pleased with the construction company or a time when it has been a greater pleasure to work with an organization on a project.

Antonio Aguerrevere
Senior Director of Design & Construction Services, Diocese of Orlando

For the last 20 years, my team has developed Trinity Communities in Pasco County, Florida. We have developed 4000 residential units, two golf courses, significant commercial, office and light industrial uses. During that time, we have used many of the largest and finest contractors to do this work. Walker’s team did an excellent job. Our project came in ahead of schedule, on budget and without a hitch. Bob McInturff and Kirby Johnson lead a team of professionals to what I consider one of the best projects we have ever done.
