Bear Brothers & Bear Lumber

Welcome to Bear Brothers, Inc., a general contracting company located in Montgomery, Alabama. Since our inception in 1946, we have been performing high-quality construction on some of the most complicated and high-profile projects in Montgomery and the surrounding areas of central and south Alabama. With over 75 years of experience, we pride ourselves on our commitment to honesty, integrity, loyalty, and commitment to our core principles.

Our History

Bear Brothers, Inc. was founded in 1946 by the six sons of T.L. Bear, who started the company in Montgomery, Alabama. Over the past seven decades, we have successfully completed projects for every college, university, military facility, and prominent religious organization in the city of Montgomery. Our success can be attributed to the strong partnerships we have established along the way, as well as our unwavering commitment to our core principles.

Our Services

At Bear Brothers, Inc., we believe that partnering is the foundation of our corporate philosophy. We are committed to building a project team that will collectively work towards a common goal: the overall success of the project. Our partnering objectives include creating a safe work environment, establishing and monitoring project goals, improving communication, reducing project costs, minimizing and meeting project schedules, and eliminating and/or reducing change orders and claims.

Pre-Construction Services

We believe that a successful project starts long before the groundbreaking. During pre-construction, we provide real-time information, including realistic cost estimates, preliminary schedules, and phasing details, so that the owner and design team can make accurate and confident decisions. Our commitment to a well-planned and executed pre-construction phase results in a more streamlined and efficient process, leading to a shorter duration from conception to groundbreaking, and a successfully completed project in the end.

We have gained experience in a wide variety of project types, including K-12 and higher education, government and military, sports, multi-family housing, hospitals, offices, restaurants, and more.
