About Us

Shovel Construction was founded in 2008 by Alan Chovel, a seasoned construction professional with a passion for building strong foundations—literally and figuratively. The company name is a clever play on Alan’s last name, “Chovel,” symbolizing our commitment to digging deep and delivering solid results. Starting as a small South Florida general contractor, we’ve grown into a premier shell contractor specializing in concrete and masonry work for commercial projects.
