Our Story
Getting Started...
Beaches evolved thru a series of companies. The first 16 years started in sales and management with PPG (Pittsburgh Paints) industrial and architectural coatings. When changing sides of the sales counter, we started a painting business called “The Paint Expert” we also, designed, built and sold an estimating guide software called “Paint Bid”. The software followed the PDCA (Painting and Decorating Contractors of America) estimating guide, prior to Windows. The company name for “Paint Bid” was TPE Estimating.
Making Changes...
After receiving our Certified Florida Builders License CBC 059131 we changed “The Paint Expert” to TPE Structures, Inc. to help build the structural repairs and waterproofing portion of the company.
Establishing our Presence...
In 1999, we started another office in Panama City Beach, Fl to offset the very seasonal business in Key West, Fl which was the winter time and Panama City Beach’s season was the summer time. We did most of our work on the Condominiums in their off season. The company name in Panama City was TPE Structures of Bay County, Inc. We started with a sizable project to help get us established. After closing the Key West office in 2004 – a new makeover was needed as we were succeeding with all types of construction and remodeling. We then changed our name again to Beaches Construction Company LLC. Also, in 2008 we passed the Florida Certified General Contractors exam and was issued the License #CGC 1516934.
