About | Dover Commercial

Dover Construction delivers the critical interior and envelope scopes that allow buildings to open with quality, functionality, and confidence.

Who We Are

Dover Construction is a specialty firm focused on Divisions 8 (Openings), 9 (Finishes), and 10 (Specialties) for commercial, institutional, and mixed-use environments across the Mid-Atlantic.

We partner with general contractors and owners to execute the scopes that define the user experience of a building such as the doors they walk through, the walls they see, the surfaces they interact with, and the details that make spaces functional and complete.

Our teams are built for the final and most visible stages of a project, where coordination matters most and deadlines are immovable. Through disciplined field leadership, sequencing awareness, and strong communication, we help project teams achieve successful turnover and occupancy.

Our Philosophy

Integrity

We hold ourselves to the highest standards of honesty and reliability. Our work reflects a commitment to doing what is right in our processes, our documentation, and our execution.

Clarity

We eliminate guesswork by providing structured insight, defined pathways, and reliable information for effective decision-making.

Discipline

We follow proven processes that ensure accuracy, accountability, and consistent delivery regardless of project scale or complexity.

Stewardship

We manage timelines, budgets, and resources with responsibility and long-term focus, ensuring decisions support the project’s lifecycle and the client’s goals.

We exist to deliver the critical interior scopes that ensure buildings open on time, perform as intended, and deliver a high quality experience doe the people who use them.

Our Approach

Alignment

Drawings, specifications, hardware sets, finish standards, and life-safety requirements reviewed upfront to identify risks before they affect the schedule.

Planning & Procurement

Material takeoffs, shop drawings, submittals, lead-time coordination, and manpower planning aligned precisely with the general contractor’s procurement and schedule plan.

Field Execution

Supervised crews, disciplined installation, trade coordination, and clean sequencing across Divisions 8, 9, and 10 ensure performance in the field matches expectations on paper.

Final detailing, surface quality control, hardware adjustments, and punch-list responsiveness deliver clean spaces ready for occupancy — and a confident owner handoff.
