Gates Construction Company, Inc.

Gates Construction Company, Inc. Commercial Masonry Contractor In 1969, Charles B. Gates began Gates Construction Company, Inc. as a general contracting business.

The company performed commercial and industrial construction in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. Upon his death in 1980, Gates Construction ceased as a general contractor. The company was reactivated in 1989 by his son, Robert H Gates, as a masonry contractor. As a masonry contractor, Gates Construction Company was operated initially from the basement of his parents home place. The of

fice moved from his parent's basement to a modular office on Highway 21 South just north of the present location. The company experienced steady growth and realized expansion was necessary. Therefore, in May 1999, Gates Construction moved to the present location on Highway 21 South. This location was actually the original location of Gates Construction Company when operated by Charles B Gates. Over the years, Gates Construction has experienced tremendous growth from 10 employees to 400 employees today. Due to that growth, Gates Construction completed an expansion to the present building in May 2009. Currently, Gates Construction Company, Inc. performs 20-30 million in volume throughout North Carolina and South Carolina.

Progress is underway at Catawba College’s new residence hall 🚧

This phase really showcases the precision behind our precast work and installation. From planning to placement, every step takes coordination, timing, and trust across the entire team.

Shoutout to everyone involved — from the operator to the Superintendent to the crew on the scaffolding — working together to ensure each piece is set safely and seamlessly. That level of teamwork is what keeps the project moving forward the right way.

Proud to be part of building spaces that will serve students for years to come.

Over the past several years, the Gates Construction Masonry team has made bowling a bit of a tradition 🎳

Turns out, stacking strikes isn’t all that different from stacking block… it takes skill, focus, and maybe just a little bit of ego 😄 Some of us roll like pros, and some of us… let’s just say we’re better with mortar than a bowling ball.

Either way, it’s all about getting the team together, having a few laughs, and building stronger connections off the job site.

Enjoy some of these great moments from our annual bowling outings!
