FLORIDA LEMARK’S STORY

Founded in 1987 and proudly owned and operated by the Rodriguez Family, Florida Lemark Corporation has grown from a small, family-run team into an industry-leading general contracting, construction management, and concrete restoration firm serving South Florida for nearly four decades.

From company leadership to our field teams, we are united in our commitment to protecting our workforce and fostering a safe, proactive jobsite environment. Our policies align with industry-leading best practices, and our formally trained safety professionals ensure continuous compliance with OSHA standards and advanced safety management principles.

This unwavering focus on safety has earned Florida Lemark multiple safety awards and contributed to our exceptional Experience Modification Rate (EMR) of 0.80, well below industry averages. Every project is supported by a dedicated Safety Manager – scaled appropriately to the project’s size and scope – reinforcing our culture of accountability and prevention. Safety is woven into every aspect of our organization, both in the office and in the field, and our philosophy remains clear: zero incidents is the only acceptable goal.
