Tarayan Sons Construction & Contracting

We've been running Tarayan Sons Construction & Contracting out of our place at Mele Kuttithodi House for a while now. Poovangal is a quiet enough area in Kozhikode, and most of our work happens right around here or in Kommeri. It’s mostly just us and a few guys we’ve known for years. My sons are involved too, which helps when things get busy with the contracting side of things. We don't have a big fancy office downtown. Most days, you’ll find us looking over drawings on the kitchen table or out at a site making sure the walls are going up straight. The weather in Kerala can be a bit of a pain for building, especially when the rains start heavy, but we manage to get things done eventually. People around here know where to find us if they need a shed fixed or a house built from the ground up. It’s a lot of physical work and phone calls. Sometimes the trucks don't show up on time and we have to scramble. That’s just how it goes in this business. We handle the paperwork and the actual labor mostly ourselves. It’s not always pretty, and the boots are usually covered in mud, but it’s what we do to keep things moving. We’ve stayed in the same spot for years because it works for us. If you're walking around Poovangal, you'll probably see our truck parked outside the house.
