Our Story

Picasso Contractors was founded by Elizabeth Ponce-Garza after decades of experience in the North Texas construction industry.

Early public-sector projects allowed Picasso to refine operational discipline and field standards, especially within school environments where scheduling and compliance are critical. As clients returned with additional scope, services expanded into final cleaning and general contracting.

Today, Picasso continues to grow as a commercial construction contractor with deep expertise in school construction, driven by repeat business and consistent performance.

How We Work

Our Approach as a Commercial Construction Contractor

Picasso Contractors operates with a consistent approach built around fixed schedules, access windows, and required documentation.

  • Work is planned in advance, crews arrive prepared, and foremen manage scope without constant direction
  • Established field practices guide demolition, abatement, cleaning, and renovation work so that projects stay aligned with site requirements and reopening deadlines
  • Communication remains direct throughout the job, and when conditions change or timelines tighten, staffing levels are adjusted to keep work moving
  • This allows projects to move forward with fewer delays or surprises
