About Us

Who We Are

At R.C. Mathews Contractor, relationships are at the foundation of everything we build. For over a century, we’ve earned trust by delivering projects that strengthen communities and create lasting value for our clients, partners, and employees.

Our approach is simple yet powerful: deliver exceptional construction experiences grounded in trust, craftsmanship, and accountability. We believe that how we build is just as important as what we build because every project represents people, purpose, and progress.

As the most trusted builder of lasting places and lasting careers, we remain dedicated to serving our employees, clients, and community with the same commitment, integrity, and care that have defined us for generations.

What We Do

  • Deliver exceptional projects on time and with uncompromising quality.
  • Lead in Preconstruction, Virtual Design and Construction, and client service, bringing clarity and confidence to complex builds.
  • Bring 85 years of trusted building experience blended with innovative, forward-thinking solutions.
  • Obsess over quality. Without quality, we would not have the steadfast multi-generational relationships and clients. We also know that we are only as good as our last project and work hard to earn our reputation every single day.
  • Partner with civic, cultural, and commercial organizations to create spaces that strengthen Nashville.

The RCMC Difference

  • People-First: We develop leaders at every level, and our teams bring passion and purpose to every project.

  • Results-Driven: We see challenges as opportunities, delivering solutions that exceed expectations.
  • Community-Minded: We measure success not just in square feet, but in the lasting impact our work has on people and places.
  • Entrepreneurial Spirit: Our passion for the work we do and the people we partner with drives us to improve ourselves, our service, and our community.
