History

Established in 1987

The Kidd Group was established in 1987 as Galbraith Construction, Inc. Richard Galbraith started this company to provide unparalleled customer service and expertise in the construction industry. At a time when poor communication, missed budgets and deadlines were the norm, we set out to change the perception of the construction industry.

After 26 years, Richard sold his company to long-time friend and former neighbor, David Kidd. The company already had a strong reputation for doing great work, especially within the healthcare space. The team members at Galbraith Construction were a perfect fit for David’s relationship-based way of doing business. His affinity for building long-lasting relationships played a large role in the projects that Galbraith Construction was awarded.

Guided by his faith and his unwavering belief that business is best when it is grounded in trust, David has earned a reputation for completing projects on time and on budget. Beyond that, and perhaps even more rare in the world of general contractors, David and his company are consistently on excellent terms with their clients once projects have ended. This has led to a business fueled by referrals and a one-of-a-kind trust between David, his team, and all of their clients.

In 2019, David’s daughter, Jennifer, joined the company as CEO and co-owner. Together, they changed the name to The Kidd Group and have expanded their service offerings. David and Jen view each interaction and decision through the lens of the moral principles set in their beliefs. This desire to value relationships and treat others well, is a guiding principle that informs their business practices. The Kidd Group knows that it is paramount to treat their clients as they would want their clients to treat them.

The Kidd Group has been the general contractors for three major office expansions for my medical office over the past 12 years. We have been quite pleased with the work that they have done for Texas Oculoplastic Consultants over the years. We would not hesitate to use them again as our expansion requires in the future.

The end result is exactly if not more than what we had in mind. Our job was finished before the original date we provided and on top of that there was no punch list. None of us could find one thing wrong with the beautiful suite.

I would not for a minute hesitate recommending The Kidd Group. They are simply the best!

You transformed this building from an unsightly and unusable floor plan to a place that we are excited to show off to our patients and friends. You not only did this at a pace that was hard to believe, but also completed the project at or below budget. It was as if you were completing this project for yourself and not for a customer. THANK YOU!

My colleagues in Austin have nothing but the highest praise for their new office space, and I want to express my personal appreciation to you for your exemplary efforts as the primary general contractor.

Your construction capabilities, interpersonal skills, attention to detail and diligence reflect very highly on you — and I might add — on the building and the LBJ Holding Co. as well.

For Myself, The LBJ Co. and our affiliate owners in the tower of the hills, I want to say thank you, thank you.
