Picking the Right Partners: Meet Gais Construction- <\/span>November 30, 2019<\/span><\/p>\n

When it came time to pick a construction partner, finding a
\nfirm that brought excellence in building breweries was a\u00a0<\/span>
\n<\/span>must. After all, there are more than fifty in the Charlotte area
\nalone, and a construction crew behind every single brewery
\nbuilt. But there\u2019s one firm that stood out in our search. Gais
\nConstruction had a hand in bringing many local breweries and
\nrestaurants into business, and we\u2019re proud to say they\u2019ve been
\ninvolved with Lost Worlds from the beginning.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cKevin and Michael\u2019s experience building breweries and
\nrestaurants brought a lot to the process,\u201d said Dave Hamme,
\nco-founder of Lost Worlds Brewing. \u201cWe brought them in early
\nduring the design phase, to share their expertise and provide
\ninput well before construction began.\u201d
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Kevin<\/span>Brothers, Michael and Kevin Gais, followed in their father \u2019s
\nfootsteps, who started Gais Construction in 1980. Starting off
\nin both commercial and residential construction, they grew
\nthe family business steadily until 2008. After the residential
\ndownturn, they focused solely on commercial projects and
\nhave spent the last decade perfecting their product and
\nbuilding their brand. While the brothers each oversee their
\nown portfolio of projects as general contractors, they still
\ncarry tools in their trucks, a nod to their deep roots in the
\nbusiness.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWorking with start-ups, which many in the brewing and
\nrestaurant business are, has been educational from the start,
\nsays Michael Gais. \u201cWe work with owners to save costs and
\ndeliver a quality product \u2013 passing along things we\u2019ve learned
\nover the years.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Things like building in air compressors for washing kegs,
\nwater filtration and trench drains for easy cleaning to keep
\nthe brew house spotless. It\u2019s these details right down to, how
\nto get a 10-barrel brewing system into what\u2019s often tight
\nspaces. \u201cOur goal is get Lost Worlds brewing beer as soon as
\npossible,\u201d says Kevin Gais.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"IMG_8948.JPG\"<\/span>Gais Construction is responsible for many of Charlotte\u2019s hot
\nspots to hang out. Sycamore Brewing was one of the first
\nbrewery construction projects more than 5 years ago, quickly
\nfollowed by Wooden Robot\u2019s initial building and expansions, as
\nwell as Good Road Cider Works, King Canary, Pour Tap Room,
\nMama Ricotta\u2019s refresh, Corkbuzz, and the recently opened
\nKiKi Bistro in Plaza Midwood.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s so critical to have a trusting partner when you\u2019re knee
\ndeep in building your business,\u201d says Hamme. \u201cThe bricks and
\nmortar are the foundation of our brand and every day it
\nbecomes closer to reality<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
