Since our founding in 1959 by C.Edward Pray, D.F. Pray has been building excellence by specializing in professional, hands-on, self-performing general contracting services both regionally and nationally. Edward’s son, Scott W. Pray, continues the family tradition of building excellence started by his father. 

Through 50 years of quality, D.F. Pray’s emphasis continues to be on the client and their specific needs. During the pre-construction, planning phase, and/or the construction process itself, the activities and objectives of the project team are designed to create value for the client while achieving the maximum scheduling and budgetary outcomes.

D.F. Pray recognizes that success also truly depends on human factors such as Teamwork, Communication, and Leadership. These are goals that, in the end, boil down to the interactions of people. We pride ourselves on our systems, our people, and our commitment to our clients’ success.

In addition, it is D.F. Pray’s dedication to our corporate values that runs deep. They do not begin and/or end with our clients. We take pride in the low turnover rate of employees and the family like atmosphere among our staff. Our goal is to maintain a “small” company spirit as the mainstay of our continued growth as a corporation. 

As initiated by C.Edward Pray, our founding father, D.F. Pray’s motto is:
“Big enough to get the job done. Small enough to care.”®
