Editor’s note: Fresno Construction is one of eight family-owned businesses that are honorees for the The Business Journal’s Family Owned Business Awards. Winners will be announced Aug. 19.
Fresno Construction is an honoree in the small business category for The Business Journal’s 2026 Family Owned Business Awards.
Founded by Michael Huxley in 2005, the company is now run alongside his son, CEO Bradley Huxley, who holds the company’s contractor’s license.
Fresno Construction provides full-service general contracting, including tenant improvements, Americans with Disabilities Act compliance upgrades, structural repairs, exterior improvements and multi-family renovations. The company works closely with property managers, developers and commercial clients to deliver efficient, code-compliant and long-lasting construction solutions.
The company has grown steadily over the past two decades, earning the Better Business Bureau’s 2025 Torch Award for Ethics and supporting the community by improving housing conditions.
Fresno Construction also supports local students through hands-on exposure to the construction industry, helping develop the next generation of skilled workers.
The company has overcome economic slowdowns and leadership strain due to health-related circumstances affecting ownership — reflecting the family’s leadership and commitment to both employees and clients.
Bradley said the company is on a good trajectory and has taken on a run of enjoyable projects, including a new restaurant and other commercial work.
He said he enjoys running the business with his father, reflecting on their past projects, looking toward the future and giving back to the community.
“I’ve had a fun run on it. It’s been family owned and kept me tight with my family because I work with them and I think that I’m very blessed there,” Bradley said.
