Building Expertise.
Building Relationships.
HBW specializes in meeting the construction needs of exacting commercial clients across the Washington D.C. region. Whether overseeing large-scale transformations or providing immediate building services, our goal is to be the trusted partner building owners turn to for all their construction needs.
We support our clients throughout their projects with a full range of commercial construction services. Our approach is grounded in direct communication and a commitment to quality craftsmanship.
Details Matter.
HBW Construction was founded with a focus on the development and maintenance of commercial properties. That focus has shifted to construction, but this background has given us deep insight into what building owners want and the challenges they regularly face.
Today, our work is distinguished by our attention to detail. HBW’s construction crews are trained to go beyond industry standards to minimize disruption, allowing building occupants and visitors to continue to work in a quiet, safe environment. This professionalism is characteristic of all our work, no matter the job size.
Relationships Matter.
We take a flexible and collaborative approach to working with owners, architects, construction managers, and property managers throughout the design and construction process. This strategy greatly minimizes cost overruns and delays and helps us meet our 100% move-in guarantee.
Our approach has fostered lasting relationships with our clients. It’s also built a reputation for delivering on our promises. Most importantly, it’s led to a high satisfaction rate among our clients.
Third-party research indicates that more than 92% of our clients have referred to our work. Our dedicated team finds satisfaction in a job well done — particularly when our clients return to us for additional projects.
We value our people.
We value our customers.
We value integrity.
We value initiative.
History
When Hartman, Briddell, Watkins Properties, Inc, was founded in 1969, the initial focus was the development and maintenance of commercial properties with a simple mission: to deliver highly personalized service and to build trusted relationships.
Today HBW, spearheaded by the next generation of talented leadership, is a full-service commercial construction firm. Our core mission remains unchanged. It is still our goal to use our expertise to deliver the best result for every client — to sweat every detail on every job — and exceed client expectations every single time.
Sustainability
At HBW, we embrace the importance of Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) and Sustainable Construction and Green Building.
As a full-service Green Builder and member of the U.S. Green Building Council, we ensure owners enjoy the quality and efficiency they expect in their new LEED building. We include affordable, sustainable building materials in all estimates. Our in-house LEED-accredited personnel are fully trained in the LEED Green Building Rating System and all LEED requirements. We will do everything in our power to make sure your building attains the points needed to achieve your desired LEED certification, whether it’s Certified, Silver, Gold or Platinum.
Community Outreach
HBW and its people are part of the local community. We’re committed to strengthening local communities throughout the region. Since 2014, HBW has developed several Giving Back Initiatives to assist neighbors in need.
We have high standards for our community outreach initiatives. We purposefully invest in the areas where we work and live through acts of service and donations. Our HBW team volunteers their time, even during lunch or after hours, contributing to various projects throughout the year and providing needed supplies. The ask and the tasks may vary, but the impact is always local.

HBW supports our neighbor, Stepping Stones Shelter, in many ways, from holiday drives to fulfilling their “urgent needs” list. Recent projects allowed our team to flex their field skills for an exterior facelift, refreshing the building’s large deck and providing a landscaping makeover.

To support our communities, HBW has also collected food and school supplies, and served dinner to families at the Children’s Inn.
