Most projects start around $5,000. A full concept-to-delivery package, which covers strategy, plan, shoot, edit, and final files, usually runs $10,000 to $15,000 or more depending on shoot days, locations, and how many cuts you need. After a 30-minute call, you get a clear number you can forward for approval. The number moves with shoot days, locations, interviews, and how many cuts you need, and you get a real figure on the first call.
What does a construction video that starts around $5,000 include?
Most projects at Tommy Bennett Video start around $5,000. At that level you're usually getting one focused video, like a project highlight or a short company overview, from a single shoot day with a tight scope.
A full concept-to-delivery package usually runs $10,000 to $15,000 or more. That's when we handle the whole job:
Strategy: we figure out who the video is for and what it needs to do, whether that's winning bids, recruiting, or closing deals.
A plan you sign off on: the shot list, the people on camera, and the schedule are locked before we show up, so your crew isn't left waiting.
The shoot: usually 1–2 days on your job site, fab shop, or vessel, and more for bigger projects.
The edit: you get a first draft in 2–3 weeks.
Final files you own: cuts for bid decks, RFQ packages, your website, and LinkedIn, all from the same shoot.
The price moves with shoot days, locations, travel, and how many cuts you need. There's no travel fee within about an hour of Covington. After a 30-minute call, you get a clear number you can forward for approval.
What changes the price of a construction company video?
Two construction videos can both start around $5,000 and land in different places. These are the things that move the number:
Shoot days. One day on one site is a different job from two or three days across more than one project. Most shoots are one or two days. Bigger projects can run four or more.
Locations. Each site adds access, safety paperwork, and time.
Interviews. More people on camera means more time filming and more time in the edit.
How many cuts you need. One main video is one job. A main video plus shorter cuts for a bid deck, LinkedIn, and a careers page is more work. It is often the better buy, because the same shoot can cover more than one use.
Travel. There is no travel fee within about an hour of Covington. Beyond that, travel is built into the price. We shoot across Louisiana and the Gulf Coast, including Baton Rouge, Lafayette, and Lake Charles.
If you have a hard date, a bid due, a conference, a launch, tell us on the first call. A date helps us plan, and we can usually work with it.
How long does a construction video take to produce?
Kickoff and pre-production usually take about a day to get the plan in place.
The shoot is usually one or two days. Bigger projects can take four or more.
You get a first draft in two to three weeks.
Most projects wrap in three to six weeks from kickoff to final delivery, including your review.
If you have a date that cannot move, say it early. We will tell you if we can hit it before you commit.
What should a construction company use the video for?
The video has to work where your buyers already look. A 60- to 90-second project spotlight in a proposal does more than a PDF capabilities statement. A brand story on your website and LinkedIn gives a prospect a reason to call. A recruiting video shows the real job so the right people apply.
We've built construction video for companies like Dynamic Group and Gainey's Concrete. The job is the same every time: show the work, the people, and the standard, so a buyer or a candidate does not have to take your word for it.

Before you have a number, and after
Before: you know you need video, but you do not have a figure you can take to a partner or an owner. The conversation stalls because nobody wants to approve an unknown.
After: you have a starting number, a plain list of what changes it, and a real quote from a 30-minute call that you can forward for approval.
What should you have ready before you call?
You do not need a shot list. Bring these four things:
The goal. Win a bid, staff a crew, explain the company, or train the next shift.
The audience. Owners, GCs, agency contacts, or candidates.
A rough deadline, if you have one.
The name of the person who approves the spend.
That is enough for a real number.
