Company Information

For over 70 years, W. C. Spratt, Inc. has been committed to delivering high quality projects, at a competitive price, ahead of schedule. Today, our repeat client base is evidence of our customer satisfaction goal. Because of this we have been able to work with many clients on a negotiated contract basis. A few quotes from our satisfied customers:

In the Fall of 2004, WC Spratt was awarded a 15 month, 5.0 million dollar contract to install approximately 14 miles of water mains and services throughout Prince William Forest Park in Triangele, Virginia.

Throughout the duration of the project, Spratt had their subcontractors under control and kept change orders to a minimum, all while following the strict site rules that are required when working within National Park Service lands. The project is now substantially complete, and all work was performed with quality workmanship and in strict accordance to the plans and specifications.

The Park Service greatly appreciated the responsiveness and strong communication skills of Spratt's Project Manager and Superintendant, and any problems were quickly resolved.

We highly recommend WC Spratt and would not hesitate to use them again for infrastructure projects.

On Behalf of Campbell & Paris I would like to commend your utility crew, headed by Mr. Jimmy Shifflett for their performance on the above project.

I have been in the construction business for over thirty years and Jimmy and his crew may be on of the most efficient utility crews I have encountered. This crew has not only been productive, they are also very neat in the prosecution of the work.

It has been a pleasure to work with this crew and all of the staff I have dealt with at W.C. Spratt. I wish you much success in the future and I would look forward to working with you again.

I would like to thank you and commend you for your support in the repairs of the Fort AP Hill, Central Wash Facility (CWF). Your teams professionalism, courteousness, dedication, technical knowledge and prompt attention to the repair issues are greatly appreciated. Your efforts as a business partner, quality contractor and taxpayer are greatly appreciated. Another job well done. Thank you for your total assistance and support. Warm regards.

"... What makes W. C. Spratt such a quality contractor is their people. Their on-site personnel are experts in their field and competently comply with all contract requirements. W. C. Spratt goes out of its way to do the little things which help guarantee project success. Their working relationship and pride in their work makes it easy to consider them for other work."

I want to take a moment to thank you for all the professional work and help that your company has provided for Marine Corps Base Quantico. As you know Spratt has been working on numerous jobs aboard the base, These jobs provide a better and safer training environment for the Marines here at Quantico. I have received a tremendous amount of positive feedback from the different training units that train on the base. This would not have been possible if we were dealing with organizations that didn't care about Marines, your attention to detail and hard work are greatly appreciated.

I would also like to add one other note, The assistance that Joe Hoyt and his crew have provided was crucial to the success of other small side jobs that Spratt did for the base. Please relay my sincere appreciation to your staff and all members of the Spratt Team. The experience that we have had with your organization has been pleasurable and memorable.

Congratulations! Your project has been selected in a recent survey as having the Safest and Cleanest Jobsite for the Second Quarter 2000 at ROICC Quantico.

The efforts and increased awareness of you and your construction team reflect your attitude toward safety. We commend these efforts, and look forward to a continued safe working relationship in the future.

Keep up the good work!

WC Spratt constructed approximately 200 linear feet of a 15-foot high gabion wall to restore an eroded Massaponax Creek stream bank in Fredericksburg, Virginia.

The eroded bank was threatening the concrete parking lot of Kentucky Fried Chicken, which serves tractor-trailer trucks. WC Spratt performed the work within the scheduled construction time and budget. TIMMONS designed and performed the construction administration of the project and worked daily with the contractor. The contractor, including the superintendent of the project, Joe Hoyt, and the construction project manager, Doug Tate, were both easy to work with and very responsive to the owner's needs.

This is a note of appreciation for the efforts and persistence of Spratt in completing the Quantico Athletic Fields project. In August, the project was struggling and the User was losing faith. By October 5, the project had obtained substantial completion and we had a satisfied client. This transition was produced by working long days and weekends. More importantly, it was a product of a working together attitude, putting aside any petty disagreements that are inevitable in the final stages, for the good of the project.

Spratt took the lead role in this final push and was the major reason for its successful completion.

I just want to say it has been a pleasure working with your Company and employees on the 12" water line project at Lake of The Woods.

I know it has been a nightmare some days but, I want you to know that the employees, Mr. Richard Shifflett and his crew with help from your office has shown dedication, loyalty, professionalism and courtesy towards the property owners and others.

I have received numerous compliments on the job with workmanship, cleanup and landscaping done they came from homeowners, building contractors, management and Orange County.

You should be proud to have these individuals employed by your company. With me being an Independent Inspector, this crew of employees made my job easier. Give my thanks to them and I hope I have another opportunity to work with your company again.

Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates, Inc. (WJE) wishes to thank and compliment W. C. Spratt, Inc. for expediting the inspection excavation opening and closure at the Carderock-Naval Surface Weapons Center (NSWC) on 30 April and 1 May 2003. WJE recognizes that you made a sacrifice to leave scheduled work to assist WJE in our investigation of water infiltration problems at the No. 81 building at Carderock NSWC.

We were very impressed with your team to efficiently mobilized and execute the work. It significantly aided our investigative study.

WJE would be delight to be one of your references, if so requested.

Overall W.C. Spratt has performed at an outstanding level during the duration of the project. The contractor was extremely cooperative when deficiencies in the final cover design system were identified in May 2000, The contractor's efforts included minimizing the erosion damage to the earthen landfill cover by trying to establish a turf layer prior to demobilizing from the site. Other efforts included additional earthen materials to ensure the 3: 1 slope required by the design was established, and remobilizing on very short notice to begin cover repairs once a fmal design was resubmitted by the A&E in September 2000 (This remobilization also coincided with a Notice of Violation for the state of Virginia for erosion problems at the landfill site). The contractor's willingness to begin work helped to mitigate the MCB response to the State and show a good faith effort to fix the erosion problems). W. C Spratt went out of there way to help identify a source of material that could meet the new design specification for a drainage layer on the cover system, identifying several area sources to help minimize costs. Their patience with the design effort continued when the final cover system design changed again at the beginning of December 2000, which changed the behavior of the final cover system while simplifying the work effort required to finish the job. W. C. Spratt's approach to negotiations and willingness to work with Government personnel has allowed the continuation of this project with minimal controversy, and complaints in the field despite long periods of A&E delay and two changes in the contract scope.

Ms. Susan Tate of W. C. Spratt was instrumental in the final stages of the project She worked very hard to ensure that the turf was established prior to the state inspection and all documents needed to complete the closure plan were submitted in a timely manner to the customer to be included in the final closure plan to be submitted to the state.
