Clark Chase

Constructions Collaborative Inc.’s (CCI’s) function is to prevent water and moisture entry into structures.

CCI’s cross trained staff works seamlessly within several trade scopes (primarily roofing and architectural sheet metal, with sloped glazing, masonry remediation, carpentry, caulking and waterproofing as frequent collateral or stand alone tasks) to create, restore and maintain the integrity of building envelopes. CCI’s understanding of building dynamics and inherent team approach is a tremendous asset on multi-employer sites and as stand alone contractors.

Constructions Collaborative Inc. was founded by Clark Chase in 1968 as a summer and part-time entity to defray Chase’s college expenses: BA, Boston University, 1970. Chase began his construction career in 1965 as a summer employee of the company his father managed. CCI continues to maintain roofs and relationships with some of Chase’s father’s clients of the 50’s and 60’s.

CCI strives to maintain a perceptive, safe and stable workforce. The companies four project manager’s average 16.75 years with the company and three of the four have college degrees. There are continuing education programs both in and out of house and a company wide substance abuse program instituted in 1995 involving random testing of all employees. The company’s written safety policies work closely with its insurers to maintain safe, efficient workplaces. CCI has had only one lost time accident (a broken arm) in the last 11.5 years (nearly 500,000 employee hours).
