Leo Tolstoy, the celebrated Russian writer, once opined that 'a good start is half the job done'. Measuring the leap Gigo Construction Ltd has made from its recent birth in 1996 to the early hours of this new millennium, the truth in Tolstoy's assertion stands as crisp as starched and pressed linen. Born in 1996, Gigo Construction is the handiwork of its owner and founder, Alh.Amadou Gigo. At its birth, the company had a skeletal staff of less than 10 employees and no equipment except simple tools like spades and wheelbarrows. With a very elaborate and ambitious corporate plan propelled by know-how and deligence, however, the company in no time rolled from its birth-bed to standup, move, and make melody, so to speak, for the theme drummed up is the supreme mastery of blending art and science to produce superior structures tall in satisfaction. Up to date, the single most outstanding trait of this company is its steadfast commitment to building top-rated structures -- refined in appearance and rugged in construction. Erecting buildings aside, the company does other construction-related services such as landscaping, quantity surveying, renovations and architectural works. Already, there are imminent plans to expand and diversify operations into related fields such as real estate, building supplies and civil engineering.

From initial inquiries to post-construction follow-up, Value Engineering Construction's seasoned crews will guide you through every step of the building process. We will customize your home building project to ensure that your experience is a pleasant one. The key to our success is our people. On a consistent basis we set ourselves apart from the conventional image of builders. We are energetic, thoughtful and professional. Our aim is to leave our customers delighted. Value Engineering is a dynamic, results driven construction firm who have been in operation for over 10 years. In that time we have built, from scratch, many residential and commercial properties. We do all the hard work; all the customer has to do is collect the keys! We currently employ 120 members of staff who are spread out among our various building projects as well as our head office off Kairaba Avenue. As part of our building services we have our own in-house architect who works closely with all our clients to ensure that their exact needs and requirements are met. This service is offered free with all signed contracts. Aside from building construction we also do building renovations, repairs, additions, installations, building maintenance contracts as well as fabricate aluminium and steel windows, doors and other metal structures. For the braver soles among you we can also hire out building machinery for those wishing to build for themselves.
