Jerry N. Hardee
President/ Estimator/ Project Manager
(803) 469-9787 Ext. 12
Mr. Hardee founded Hardee Construction Company in 1975. With good work ethics and determination Mr. Hardee succeeded in developing a full service construction company, one he saw the need for in the 70's. Local companies lacked the personal attention to detail, timely construction and quality that he knew would have to be the backbone of his own company.
With a focus on quality affordable residential building, Hardee Construction Company reached an all time record in 1987 by building and selling 80 residential homes in 1 year. This equipped Hardee Construction Company with the revenue it needed to expand out into the Commercial Building Market. Here the focus was on Pre-Engineered Metal Structures that could be designed and built to have a "warm feeling" mixing other building materials such as stucco and brick to a seemingly cold structure of steel. Hardee Construction Company is credited with being one of the first companies to introduce this new design concept in our area.
Presently Mr. Hardee is a hands-on person working diligently on many projects to ensure quality work. Mr. Hardee is also in charge of our land development department of sales and purchasing.
Mr. Hardee is a native of Sumter, SC and has strong ties in the Sumter area. He currently resides in Sumter. He has two grown sons, Dwayne and Jason and six grandchildren. Mr. Hardee has always been a helpful and kind hearted person willing to go out his way to help people and clients.
