Ashok Construction Co

We operate Ashok Construction Co out of Malad West. Specifically, we’re located in the Bhendi Bazar area at P 4 9. It’s a busy part of Mumbai, as you can imagine. There’s always construction noise somewhere nearby, which is fitting for what we do. Our office is a bit cramped because we have a lot of tools and supplies stacked up in the corners. It’s not a place for meetings with fancy coffee; it’s where we plan out the day’s work and check our equipment. We spend more time out at the sites than we do sitting behind these desks. The staff here has been together for a long time, so we don't need to say much to understand what needs to be done. We’ve seen a lot of changes in Malad over the years, with new buildings going up everywhere. We just try to keep up with our own projects. Sometimes the monsoon rains slow us down, but that’s just part of living here. We don't have a big marketing department or anything like that. People usually hear about us from their neighbors or friends. We just take on one job at a time and try to do it right without any shortcuts. It’s hard work, but it’s what we know. We’re just local people building things in our own neighborhood. The office smells like old paper and sawdust most of the time, which feels just about right for a place like ours.
