Want some inspiration right off the bat? Here are 16 really good construction company name ideas.
If you’re starting a business in the construction industry, then one of the first things you’ll need to do is come up with construction company names. We’ve assembled a list of 280 construction business name ideas. Whether you decide to use one of these names as-is, just need some inspiration, or you’re hoping for guidance, this guide can help.
One last note before we proceed: just because we’ve included a construction company name idea on this list doesn’t guarantee that the name is available in your state. It’s your responsibility to do the legwork to see if your desired name is available and free of trademarks, so please make sure you double-check the availability of any name in your business’s home state.
Will you be focusing on constructing new homes? Retail spaces? Commercial office buildings? No matter what your construction specialty is, if you’ll be offering general contractor services as your primary focus, you’ll need a good name to stand out to your target market.
Here are some general contractor company names to choose from.
If you focus on full-scale remodels of homes and other commercial spaces, you’ll want a brand name that reflects your services. Here are some of our favorite business names for home remodeling brands.
If you focus on renovating existing structures instead of full-scale remodels, you might need a specific name that showcases your niche. Here are some of our favorites.
Not every business name needs to be slick and professional. They can be fun-loving, too. If you’d like to make a strong impression on your potential customers, consider making them laugh with one of these funny construction company names.
One hallmark of a good construction business name is that it’s memorable, making it easy for customers to recall it from memory. To make that happen, you’ll want a catchy construction company name. Here are some of our favorites.
By now, you might have a few different names that you like. Maybe they’re ones inspired by your own naming efforts, created by a business name generator, or even one from the lists above. But how exactly do you pick the perfect name?
The ideal business name is one that meets some key criteria. A good construction company’s name checks the following boxes.
Word of mouth is one of the most powerful forms of advertising, even in our digital age. You want your name to stick in your customers’ minds, making it easy for them to recommend you to friends. If your name is too plain or forgettable, they won’t be able to recommend you (even if they loved the service you provided).
On a similar note to being memorable, you want it to be easy for customers to talk about your business, recommend you to friends (who can be potential clients) on social media, and so on. If your name is too complex for your target market, they might not be able to do that.
Your company name should give your potential customers a glimpse of the products and services you offer or reflect your company’s values. For construction companies, this presents a wide variety of possibilities. You could showcase your expertise in designing a particular room like kitchens or modular construction or something similar.
Down the line, you might decide to expand your services a bit. However, if you have a super-specific name, you might find yourself needing to rebrand your business. While that’s possible, it’s much easier to start with a name that’s a little broader.
The best construction company name is the one that’s actually available for you to use. Your name cannot infringe on the names of registered businesses (LLCs, corporations, etc.) in your state. You can check if your name is free by running a business name search. You should also run a trademark search on the United States Patent and Trademark Office website and on your state’s website for state trademarks. This search will help ensure you don’t infringe on any federally or state-protected trademarks.
If your name isn’t ruled out by these searches and it meets the other criteria above, then it’s probably a great name to use. If your name matches a registered business name in your state or a federally protected trademark (or state trademark), you should make some edits until the name is unique.
If you’ve got a list of names you like and more than one of them passes the test, you can use whichever you like best.
After you’ve done all the legwork to create a good construction company name and ensure it’s compliant, you’ll want to make sure your work doesn’t go to waste. One way you can do that is by filing a name reservation. Note: this step really only applies for businesses that plan to organize as LLCs or corporations.
Filing a name reservation is a process that varies slightly from state to state, but the end result is pretty similar: the state will temporarily protect your name. The reservation ends either when it expires or when you register a business with that name.
Most states protect names for about 120 days, provided you file the proper form and pay a filing fee. Please check with your state’s business website for full details.
In today’s digital-driven landscape, a business website is absolutely essential to success. And to build a business website, you’ll need a web domain. Ideally, your business domain should match or closely resemble your company name. That will make it easier for customers from your target audience to find you online.
Granted, a domain registration isn’t legally required. But it is a practical necessity. If you don’t already have a domain name, we can help you register one quickly and easily.
Social media can be a powerful tool for a new business; even just a few profiles on a few sites gives you ample opportunities to spread the word about your company. It’s also a great way to connect with potential customers in a less formal setting.
If possible, claim social media handles that match your company name as soon as you finalize it. Even if you don’t intend to be active on the page right away, claiming social media handles can help ensure you get one that matches your construction company name. Matching handles can help make it easier for customers to find you online.
Starting a business is an exciting but stressful endeavor, with lots of paperwork to tackle and tasks to finish. But you don’t have to do everything alone. We can help. Here at ZenBusiness, we specialize in tackling red tape and paperwork. Whether you need help building a business website, forming a limited liability company (LLC) or corporation, or anything in between, we’ll handle it. With our help, you’ll be free to focus on what you love: building beautiful spaces.
