Today we’d like to introduce you to Jose Segura.
Hi Jose, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
I’ve been in construction for over 20 years, and I didn’t get here through shortcuts—I learned by doing the work, owning outcomes, and building trust one job at a time. Early on, I noticed something important: projects don’t fall apart only because of materials or labor. They fall apart when communication is poor, expectations aren’t clear, and no one takes ownership when problems show up. So I made it my standard that if my name is on the work, I’m going to own it—schedule, quality, and follow-through.
Segura Construction Group, LLC was built on that mindset. We started with subcontractor work and commercial repairs, then expanded into facility maintenance because we saw a real need in the market. Businesses don’t just need a contractor when something breaks—they need a dependable partner who can respond quickly, document properly, keep people safe, and help prevent small issues from turning into expensive emergencies.
As our reputation grew, our opportunities grew. Strong relationships and consistent performance opened doors to larger projects across the DFW area—medical offices, hospitality and restaurant build-outs, retail improvements, and public-facing work. That growth didn’t happen overnight. It came from consistency, accountability, and doing right by clients even when it cost us more time or effort.
Today, I’m proud that we’ve built a company clients can rely on and a team culture centered on integrity, safety, and excellence. I lead from a faith-led perspective—meaning we aim to operate with honesty, humility, and a commitment to doing things the right way. Our goal isn’t just to complete projects; it’s to build long-term partnerships with clients who know they have a contractor they can trust.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
No, it hasn’t been a smooth road—and I don’t think it ever is when you’re building something the right way.
One of the biggest challenges in construction is that you’re constantly managing moving parts: labor availability, material lead times, inspections, client decisions, and the reality that plans don’t always match what you find in the field. Early on, I learned that even when you do your part, delays can still happen—and the difference is how you communicate, document, and protect the client and the project when things change.
Another struggle was growth itself. As we took on bigger projects, I had to build systems—estimating, scheduling, safety, quality control, and job documentation—so we weren’t relying on memory or “hero mode.” That transition from doing everything personally to leading a team and building structure was hard, but necessary.
We’ve also had to learn how to choose the right clients and the right partners. Not every project is a good fit, and not every vendor shares the same standards. We’ve had seasons where we had to say no to work, tighten our contract language, and put stronger processes in place to protect everyone involved.
If I had to sum it up: the struggle wasn’t the work itself—it was learning to scale without compromising integrity. Those challenges shaped how we operate today: clear communication, strong documentation, safety first, and delivering consistent results even when the job gets complicated.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Segura Construction Group, LLC?
Segura Construction Group, LLC is a Dallas-based general contracting and facility maintenance company serving clients across the DFW area. We support commercial properties with everything from fast-response repairs and preventative maintenance to full interior build-outs and larger renovation scopes—especially in healthcare, hospitality/restaurants, retail, and public-facing facilities.
What sets us apart is how we operate, not just what we build. We’re known for clear communication, strong documentation, and taking ownership of the details that keep projects on track—schedule coordination, safety compliance, quality control, and clean closeout. Many contractors can “do the work,” but we’ve built our reputation on being dependable when projects get complicated, and on being the team clients can call without worrying if they’ll have to chase us down for updates.
We specialize in:
Facility Maintenance & Repairs: responsive service, consistent reporting, and a proactive approach to preventing recurring issues.
Commercial Build-Outs & Renovations: coordinated scopes across trades with a focus on schedule, safety, and a clean finished product.
Long-Term Partnerships: we aim to become a trusted resource for property teams, owners, and operators—not a one-time vendor.
Brand-wise, what I’m most proud of is the trust we’ve built. Our work is often in spaces where downtime is expensive and standards are high, and clients depend on us to solve problems quickly and correctly. We lead with integrity, professionalism, and a faith-led commitment to doing what we say we’ll do. I want your readers to know that Segura Construction isn’t built on hype—we’re built on consistency. If you need a contractor who will communicate, document, and deliver, that’s what we’re known for.
Do you have any advice for those just starting out?
If you’re just starting out, my advice is simple: build your reputation before you try to build your revenue. In the beginning, you don’t win because you’re the cheapest—you win because you’re the most dependable.
Here are a few things I wish I understood earlier:
Communication is a skill that separates pros from amateurs.
Return calls. Confirm in writing. Set expectations early. Most “construction problems” are actually communication problems.
Document everything.
Photos, daily notes, change requests, approvals, material selections, and site conditions. Documentation protects relationships and protects your business. If it isn’t written down, it didn’t happen.
Know your numbers or you will work yourself into the ground.
Track labor hours, material costs, overhead, and profit. Don’t guess. Price work so you can deliver quality and still stay in business. Cash flow matters as much as profit.
Don’t scale too fast. Build systems first.
When you grow without processes, you end up living in “hero mode” and mistakes multiply. Get your estimating, scheduling, invoicing, safety, and closeout procedures tight before you take on bigger work.
Choose clients and partners carefully.
Not all money is good money. If someone doesn’t respect your time, refuses to communicate, or constantly changes the plan without approving changes, that will cost you more than it’s worth.
Protect your integrity—especially when it’s inconvenient.
Do what you say you’ll do. Fix what you own. Be honest about what you don’t know. Integrity is what turns a one-time job into long-term relationships.
If I could summarize it: be consistent, be organized, and be the contractor who takes ownership. That’s what builds a real business over time.
