SAN DIEGO-C.W. Driver, a premier builder serving California since 1919, has acquired Good & Roberts (G&R), a 34-year-old San Diego based construction firm. G&R will operate as a subsidiary, allowing C.W. Driver to expand into new markets and broaden its current San Diego market share. Specific terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

“This acquisition is an exciting opportunity for both companies,” said Joe Grosshart, regional vice president in C.W. Driver's San Diego office. “Good & Roberts shares the same core values as C.W. Driver while serving their customers in a highly specialized market niche. C.W. Driver brings improved access to financial and technical resources. Together, we are much more capable of serving all of our respective clients' needs regardless of project size or market sector.”

The American Subcontractors Association recently nominated both firms for Superintendent of the Year and General Contractor of the Year – C.W. Driver in the Large General Contractors category and G&R in the Small General Contractors category. As a result, G&R was awarded Contractor of the Year for the seventh time along with a second place award for Safety in the General Contractors category. Additionally, both firms rank among San Diego's larger construction firms. C. W. Driver and G&R were 12th and 24th respectively in the San Diego Business Journal's ranking of the top 30 general contractors. SDBJ also ranked Good & Roberts as the 5th largest builder of Tenant Improvement projects.
