Welcome to
Lichtefeld, Incorporated
Established in 1918, Lichtefeld Inc. serves Louisville, KY as a leading design-build general contractor, commercial contractor, and developer. We specialize in metal building construction using the design/build method.
Pre-engineered metal buildings combined with the streamlined design/build method offer owners an extremely efficient experience. Your project is completed 30% faster than conventional methods. We are also your sole point of responsibility — no more expensive change orders or multiple subcontractors for you to handle.
While we focus on steel building systems, we also excel with conventional steel construction and wood-framed projects. Our experience helps us guide you to the most cost-effective solution for your project. Your budget determines which methods we use.
While our main focus is commercial and industrial complexes, we serve almost all industries: automotive, retail, schools and churches, restaurants, storage, office/warehouse, recreational, public services, and trucking facilities. Steel buildings can be used in almost any construction project.
