"What?" "Does your company only focus on residential projects? What about structural work, lab design, and smart system layouts?"

"We used to focus on structural work, but the competition was too stiff, Jack replied. "Well-established m construction companies dominated the industry, and smaller ones struggled to get by. We realized we couldn't keep up, so we decided to let that part of the business go.
