Licensed General Contractor Serving Southwest Florida – Ground to Finish

One license. One crew. From the first shovel of dirt to the finished building.

We hold Florida state GC license CGC1528872, and we handle everything — land clearing, grading, excavation, site development, framing, and drywall — under one roof. Developers, HOAs, municipalities, and property owners across Lee, Collier, Charlotte, and Palm Beach counties call us when a project needs to get done right and on schedule.

ABOUT UNIVERSAL TRAX

Built from the Ground Up. Literally

Brian Cox started Universal Trax in 2012 doing site prep work out of LaBelle. He built the company on one principle: do what you say you’re going to do, and do it right the first time. Over the next decade, he grew the business from a small site work crew into a full-service general contracting company capable of handling a project from raw land all the way to finished building.

Five years ago, Brian added vertical construction to the mix — framing, drywall, and structural work — and brought in Brady Herndon to lead that division. Today, Universal Trax operates two divisions under one CGC license: horizontal site work and vertical construction. The crew that clears your land can also frame your building. That’s not common in this industry, and it’s a big reason why repeat clients like Habitat for Humanity and Babcock Ranch keep coming back.

WHY CLIENTS CHOOSE US

We Show Up. We Finish. We Pick Up the Phone.

In Florida contracting, the bar is low — missed start dates, blown schedules, and radio silence when problems hit. Our clients come to us because they’re tired of that. We operate differently. We show up when we say we will, we deliver on schedule, and we stay responsive from the first call to the final walkthrough.

One Call, Full Scope

Our GC license covers both horizontal site work and vertical construction. You don’t need a separate site contractor and a separate builder. We handle it all.

Speed is the standard — and quality never takes a back seat.

When you approve a proposal, we mobilize immediately. We confirm the scope, align on the details, and get to work with the precision and craftsmanship you expect. Our commitment is simple: move fast, build right, and deliver results that exceed expectations.

Communication You Can Count On

Communication you can count on, built on transparency, responsiveness, and a commitment to keeping you informed at every step.

20+ Years of Real Work

Brian Cox started Universal Trax in 2012 but has 20+ years of real work experience. The government agencies, municipalities, and major developers who keep hiring us are the proof.

OUR PROCESS

Simple Process. No Surprises.

STEP 01

Tell Us About the Project

Call us or fill out the estimate form. We get the basics — scope, site conditions, timeline — then come out and walk the site with you. We look at what needs to happen, in what order, and what the finished product should look like. You get a real proposal based on the actual job, not a guess.

STEP 02

Schedule the Work

Once you approve the proposal, we lock in a start date based on your needs. Whether you require fast turnaround or special construction hours, we schedule to fit your priorities and get moving without delay.

STEP 03

Communication Through Completion

You’re introduced directly to the Universal Trax foreman responsible for your project. They provide clear updates, fast responses, and consistent communication from kickoff to final completion. No surprises, no gaps — just a dedicated point of contact you can count on until the job is done.

Ready to Get the Work Done?

Tell us about your project and we’ll come out and walk the site with you. No obligation. No vague estimates. Just a straight conversation about what the job needs and how we can get it done.
