Georgia's healthcare builders since 1999.

A commercial general contractor built around the projects others won’t touch — complex work inside live, occupied facilities.

Our Story

It started with relationships, and a different way of building.

In 1999, Barry Segars left a large general contracting firm to pursue a vision of building a company centered on trusted relationships, exceptional client service, and quality construction. Together with a team of experienced professionals who shared that vision, he founded Segars Group, LLC.

Today, Segars Group is a full-service general contractor with extensive experience across healthcare, commercial, and specialty construction markets. Our reputation has been built on delivering high-quality projects safely, on schedule, and within budget while maintaining the highest standards of professionalism and integrity.

Our Approach

Planning, people, and accountability.

We recognize that every project represents our client’s vision and investment. Understanding each client’s goals, operational needs, and expectations is the foundation of our approach. By combining thoughtful planning, proactive communication, and disciplined project management, we deliver facilities that meet our clients’ objectives while minimizing disruption to their operations.

Our experienced project managers, superintendents, and field personnel bring the knowledge and attention to detail required for even the most complex projects. From occupied renovations and phased construction to accelerated schedules, our team has consistently demonstrated the ability to overcome challenges while maintaining exceptional standards of safety, quality, and craftsmanship.

Organization, communication, and accountability guide every phase of the construction process. These principles allow us to provide outstanding value while building long-term relationships based on trust, transparency, and consistent performance.

What We Believe

The standards behind every project.

Integrity

Clean, fair, and thorough from the first estimate to the final walkthrough. We do what we say we'll do.

Safety First

OSHA-compliant policies and clear procedures that protect our crews and everyone around our jobsites.

Jobsite Cleanliness

A pledged standard that's non-negotiable in healthcare — and appreciated on every commercial project too.

Clear Communication

You stay informed at every phase. No surprises, no guesswork — just steady, transparent updates.

Flexibility

We thrive in dynamic, occupied environments and adapt to change without losing the schedule.

Quality & Accountability

Your ideas, delivered on time and on budget — every time. We own the outcome, start to finish.

Built for Healthcare

The expertise that keeps care running.

Our knowledge of complex projects requiring strict phasing and infection-control accountability has earned us a reputation as one of the area’s best healthcare general contractors. Here’s what that means on the ground:

ICRA infection control

Containment, negative-air, and dust-control protocols that protect patients.

Phasing around live operations

Sequenced work that keeps surgery schedules and patient corridors open.

Interim Life Safety Measures

ILSM planning that maintains code compliance throughout construction.

After-hours & low-disruption scheduling

Noise, vibration, and traffic managed around the people who depend on the space.
