When it comes to building more than just structures - building trust, reputation, and long-term impact, and G Hyatt Construction stands in a league of its own. Recently recognized as “Blue Collar Business of the Year,” this Austin-based company, led by Justin Hyatt, exemplifies what sustainable growth and craftsmanship look like in today’s construction industry.
The foundation of G Hyatt Construction goes deeper than concrete and steel. It’s rooted in family legacy. Justin Hyatt, who grew up working alongside his father, Gerald Hyatt, in North Carolina, carried forward decades of hands-on experience when he founded the company in Austin in 2011. Naming the business after his father was a commitment to uphold the same level of expertise, discipline, and integrity that shaped his early years.
Since its inception, G Hyatt Construction has delivered an impressive range of projects across both public and private sectors. Their work includes:
- Parks and community spaces
- Police stations and public safety facilities
- Senior centers and schools
- Apartment complexes and dormitories
- Office buildings and hotels
- Substations, pools, and visitor centers
This breadth isn’t just about volume. It reflects a team capable of adapting to complex requirements while maintaining consistent quality.
G Hyatt’s growth trajectory is nothing short of remarkable. With support from the Texas State University Small Business Development Center (SBDC), the company secured two SBA 7(a) loans - fueling expansion and operational scale.
The results:
- Approximately $25 million in annual revenue
- Over $93 million in growth between 2022–2025
- A strong workforce of 61 full-time employees and 194 contract workers
That’s not luck. That’s disciplined execution backed by smart financial strategy.
Ask any client, and you’ll hear the same themes: “professionalism, competence, and integrity.” G Hyatt Construction approaches every project with a problem-solving mindset, ensuring challenges are met with solutions, not delays. Their communication style is clear and proactive, which translates into one of the most valuable outcomes in construction: “projects delivered on time and on budget.”
Awards are nice, but this one feels earned. G Hyatt Construction represents the best of what a blue-collar business can be: skilled, dependable, growth-focused, and community-driven.
In an industry where reputation is everything, they’ve built one that lasts.
