About Us

Formed in 2005, TLW, Inc. is a woman-owned, small business and HUBZone certified business. TLW, Inc. is also a diversified company working in Mississippi and adjacent states (including Texas) with a focus on Heavy/Civil, Utilities, Emergency Response, Commercial Building, and Housing in both the public and private sectors. Safety is #1, and client satisfaction is paramount. TLW, Inc. does it right the first time and builds its reputation on repeat business. With the growth of our audience, we took the opportunity to grow our organization and expand our business to serve all of the Gulf Coast, from Florida to Texas. In doing so, we launched Gulf States Contractor Services for us to better communicate to our customers.

A Lifetime of building

While it may be uncommon for a woman to be in construction—much less owning and operating a roofing business—it’s second nature for Tonya and Janette. Janette married into a construction business and happily built TL Wallace Inc. alongside her late husband, Tommy Wallace. Tonya grew up in the business, following in her father’s footsteps into the construction industry and starting TLW Inc., a construction company in Columbia, MS.

Both women are led by their strong convictions to serve others and do so with excellence and have been doing so for the last 50 years. With this great depth of experience, they know how to lead an organization to produce quality work, leading to happy customers across the Southeast.
