Our Story: Building Excellence Together

Founded in 1990 by brothers-in-law Michael (Mike) Burks and Grady Richard (Ricky) Mordecai, Burks-Mordecai Builders, Inc. emerged in Columbus, MS, as a testament to their shared passion for construction. The business was formed with the belief that reputation, integrity, and responsibility still matter. In 2015, Ricky’s son, Jordan Mordecai, joined the family business, adding a fresh perspective and new energy to the team.
