Commercial Construction in Trafford, PA
JP Construction does commercial construction in Trafford and the rest of Westmoreland County. Licensed and insured, with free estimates.
Ground-up commercial buildings and interior build-outs for retail, office, and light industrial space.
Trafford is a small borough on the Westmoreland-Allegheny line with tight lots and older houses. Additions and detached garages make up most of our work here, along with structural repairs on homes that have been added onto before. We have been doing commercial construction here since 2015, and the same project manager runs your job from the first site visit to the final inspection.

Commercial Construction Built for Trafford Properties
A few things come up again and again on Trafford jobs: small lots that push additions up instead of out, and knob-and-tube or early aluminum wiring that the electrician has to deal with at the tie-in. We plan for both before we price the work, and we know what the local building department wants to see on a permit application, which keeps the review from dragging on.
Common challenges we address here
- Small lots that push additions up instead of out
- Knob-and-tube or early aluminum wiring that the electrician has to deal with at the tie-in
- Alley setbacks that have to be verified before a rear garage goes in
Seasonal Considerations
Trafford's tight lots leave little room for staging materials and equipment, so in winter we plan deliveries carefully and keep the neighbors in the loop about what is coming and when.
