Commercial Contractor in Slidell
Overview
Building on three core qualities, our quest at K.B. Kaufmann of Slidell is to be distinguished and viewed as best-in-class in this criteria:
- Our commitment to our clients
- The quality of our workmanship
- The dedication and professional of our employees
We value doing the right thing, having fun, giving back to our community, and being different in order to be better.
As a design-build commercial contractor, there are qualities and characteristics that you can leverage to ensure the success of your project. From site selection, to financing, to design-build, to general construction, we are prepared to share our insight and experience for your successful construction build or renovation project.
The owner of K.B. Kaufmann & Company, Inc. first began as a framing carpenter who worked for several residential contractors. Many of the projects were short forming carpenters. Self-motivation, determination, and a can-do attitude were key ingredients in making the transition from framing carpenter to concrete slabs, and ultimately to structural concrete. This owner, inspired by the general contractors that he worked for, set in motion a plan to become a commercial general contractor.
Community
Just as we are committed to each one of our clients, as a commercial contractor, we are equally committed to our Slidell and surrounding community. We are active participants in our Chamber of Commerce, The Better Business Bureau, and our local Rotary Club. We have volunteered the building services of our company to provide safe, comfortable living quarters for working homeless families, a vision sponsored by Community Christian Concerns. Some of us are little league coaches, prison ministry volunteers, have taken youth and parents on hunting and fishing trips to enjoy the outdoors. We have also volunteered to work on Habitat for Humanity projects and supported their fundraising efforts.
It is our hope that what you see and read here provides you with a different view of K.B. Kaufmann & Company. You might ask, why would we spend the time and effort to share these personal aspects of our team and our company? It is important to us that you are able to appreciate that we view our reward is in making a difference in a way that is meaningful for others as well.
Our Clients Speak
“My wife Lisa and I are the founders of Vanguard College of Cosmetology, a Paul Mitchell partner school. We own and operate three cosmetology schools with campuses located in Slidell, Baton Rouge, and Metairie of Louisiana. Two of the three campuses operate from facilities personally owned by Lisa and myself. The combined space is nearly 50,000 square feet, all of which was designed and/or built by K.B. Kaufmann & Company.
Dave Kaufmann has assembled an impressive team of highly qualified professionals. From start to finish, from the office staff to field cleanup crews, the entire K.B. Kaufmann team provided unsurpassed quality with courteous customer service. We at no point became concerned about any aspect of the three design and build projects they managed for us. Equally important, each project was completed on time and within budgets.
The bottom line in business is “The Bottom Line.” Neither Lisa nor I have the time to oversee vendors, contractors, or service providers. We could not have remained focus on the day to day operations of multiple business interests without complete confidence in a competent contractor. As with all businesses, the performance of an organization and the manner in which it serves its customers is ultimately a reflection of the owner. Dave Kaufmann’s Fortune 500 leadership demeanor, along with his good old southern hospitality led to more than the creation of beautiful facilities, but also to great friendships.”

“Before I contracted K.B. Kaufmann & Company to build my office, my chief concern was having enough funds for the build-out of the leased space. K.B. Kaufmann was willing to work with me so that I could afford the project. One of the reasons I selected K.B. Kaufmann as my contractor was because Dave Kaufmann Sr. said that building my office will be an enjoyable experience and it is important to him that I am happy. I never heard those comments from a builder before.
Dave Sr. has a friendly spirit and his team is a reflection of the man. After the building phase was over, I did not feel alone. His supervisor, Josh, was superb. He was there if I needed pictures hung, furniture moved, or just to lend a helping hand. K.B. Kaufmann & Company is a builder you can trust.”
