HISTORY

Original Crew
Family owned and operated since 1914, Ghilotti Construction
Company has 88+ years of engineering experience and a family
tradition of hard work and dependability. The story of Ghilotti
Construction Company is the story of the American Dream. A
stone mason by trade, our founding grandfather, James Ghilotti,
left his native Italy to come seeking his fortune in California.
Transporting stones all over the north bay by horse and cart,
his back-breaking hard work and business philosophy paid off
as his company grew from small paving jobs to building bridges
and highways.
By 1939, four sons were working by their father’s side
in a true family business. No job was too big or too small
for the growing company, and that continues to hold true today.
Now in its third generation, GCC continues to seek challenges
while expanding its technological edge.

California’s finest businesses. GCC works to maintain

pursuit of new technologies and providing a work place full

At Ghilotti Construction Company, we are proud of our heritage
and our accomplishments. We proudly stand behind the philosophy
of our founder and grandfather, James Ghilotti, who instilled
the importance of a strong work ethic and said, “Do
good work. Be responsible. Take care of the community and
the people who work for you.”
Whether in Marin County, Sonoma County, and Napa County or
beyond, Ghilotti Construction Company stands behind its reputation
and strong family values.
