Charlie Caputo
President
In 1988, after graduating from Belmont Abbey college with a degree in accounting, Charlie set out to become a contractor. With very little experience he started as a framer, learning in the field as well as from books, which he was studying for the North Carolina contractor’s exam. He passed the exam later that year. Over the next few years, he continued learning framing, roofing, siding, concrete, and landscaping all as an independent contractor with his own crews. In 1993 he went to work with Prestige Building company and helped to start the commercial division working with the two owners and mentors who eventually welcomed him as a partner into the company. There he gained experience as a superintendent, then project management and estimating. In 2002 Charlie started his own firm Spectrum Building Company that has successfully completed hundreds of retail centers, restaurants, office buildings, industrial buildings, and boutique hotels. Charlie treats his clients like partners by always looking out for the client’s best interest which explains why a tremendous amount of Spectrum’s work is from repeat customers. In 2018 Charlie welcomed Jason Mulholland as a partner in Spectrum who shares the same vision of quality and client care.
