Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies | 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation Presentation Basis— The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in accordance with accounting policies generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and reflect all wholly owned subsidiaries and those entities the Company is required to consolidate. See Note 4 - Consolidated 50% Owned Subsidiaries and Note 5 - Construction Joint Ventures for further discussion of the Company’s consolidation policy for those entities that are not wholly owned. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Values presented within tables (excluding per share data) are in thousands. Reclassifications have been made to historical financial data in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to conform to the current year presentation. Estimates and Judgments— The preparation of the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Certain accounting estimates of the Company require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application. These include the recognition of revenue and earnings from construction contracts over time, the valuation of long-lived assets, goodwill and purchase accounting estimates. Management continually evaluates all of its estimates and judgments based on available information and experience; however, actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant Accounting Policies Consistent with Regulation S-X Rule 10-1(a), the Company has omitted significant accounting policies in this quarterly report that would duplicate the disclosures contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 under “Part II, Item 8. - Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.” This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K. Accounts Receivable— Receivables are generally based on amounts billed to the customer in accordance with contractual provisions. Receivables are written off based on the individual credit evaluation and specific circumstances of the customer, when such treatment is warranted. The Company performs a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information and existing economic conditions to determine if there are potential uncollectible receivables. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our allowance for our estimate of expected credit losses was zero. As is customary, we have agreed to indemnify our bonding company for all losses incurred by it in connection with bonds that are issued, and we have granted our bonding company a security interest in certain assets, including accounts receivable, as collateral for such obligations. Contracts in Progress— For performance obligations satisfied over time, amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals (e.g., biweekly or monthly) or upon achievement of contractual milestones. Typically, Sterling bills for advances or deposits from its customers before revenue is recognized, resulting in contract liabilities. However, the Company occasionally bills subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets. Many of the contracts under which the Company performs work also contain retainage provisions. Retainage refers to that portion of our billings held for payment by the customer pending satisfactory completion of the project. Unless reserved, the Company assumes that all amounts retained by customers under such provisions are fully collectible. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, contract assets included $45,924 and $44,412 of retainage, respectively, and contract liabilities included $39,682 and $33,856 of retainage, respectively. Retainage on active contracts is classified as current regardless of the term of the contract and is generally collected within one year of the completion of a contract. We anticipate collecting approximately 68% of our June 30, 2021 retainage during the next twelve months. These assets and liabilities are reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet within “Contract assets” and “Contract liabilities” on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. Revenue recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 that was included in the contract liability balance on December 31, 2020 was $141,813 and $297,370, respectively. Revenue recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 that was included in the contract liability balance on December 31, 2019 was $132,225 and $278,491, respectively. Cash and Restricted Cash— Our cash is comprised of highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less. Restricted cash of $6,411 and $6,457 is included in “Other current assets” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. This primarily represents cash deposited by the Company into separate accounts and designated as collateral for standby letters of credit in the same amount in accordance with contractual agreements. |

Typically, the Company assumes more risk with lump-sum contracts. However, these types of contracts offer additional profits if the work is completed for less than originally estimated. Under fixed-unit price contracts, the Company’s profit may vary if actual labor-hour costs vary significantly from the negotiated rates. Also, because some contracts can provide little or no fee for managing material costs, the components of contract cost can impact profitability. Variable Consideration The Company has projects that it is in the process of negotiating, or awaiting final approval of, unapproved change orders and claims with its customers. The Company is proceeding with its contractual rights to recoup additional costs incurred from its customers based on completing work associated with change orders, including change orders with pending change order pricing, or claims related to significant changes in scope which resulted in substantial delays and additional costs in completing the work. Unapproved change order and claim information has been provided to the Company’s customers and negotiations with the customers are ongoing. If additional progress with an acceptable resolution is not reached, legal action will be taken. Based upon the Company’s review of the provisions of its contracts, specific costs incurred and other related evidence supporting the unapproved change orders and claims, together in some cases as necessary with the views of the Company’s outside claim consultants, the Company concluded it was appropriate to include in project price amounts of $14,300 and $7,142, at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, relating to unapproved change orders and claims. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Contract Estimates Accounting for long-term contracts and programs involves the use of various techniques to estimate total contract revenue and costs. For long-term contracts, the Company estimates the profit on a contract as the difference between the total estimated revenue and expected costs to complete a contract and recognizes such profit over the life of the contract. Contract estimates are based on various assumptions to project the outcome of future events that often span several years. These assumptions include labor productivity and availability, the complexity of the work to be performed, the cost and availability of materials and the performance of subcontractors. Changes in job performance, job conditions and estimated profitability, including those changes arising from contract penalty provisions and final contract settlements may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Changes in contract estimates resulted in net increases of approximately $3,727 and $12,032 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, and net increases of approximately $2,197 and $2,292 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, included in “Operating income” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. |

Noncontrolling Interest [Abstract] | |
Consolidated 50% Owned Subsidiaries | 4. CONSOLIDATED 50% OWNED SUBSIDIARIES The Company has 50% ownership interests in two subsidiaries (“Myers” and “RHB”) that it fully consolidates as a result of its exercise of control over the entities. The earnings attributable to the 50% portions the Company does not own were approximately $4,800 and $6,600 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and $4,600 and $6,300 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and are eliminated within “Other operating expense, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Any undistributed earnings for partners are included in “Members’ interest subject to mandatory redemption and undistributed earnings” within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are mandatorily payable at the time of the noncontrolling owners’ death or permanent disability. These two subsidiaries have individual mandatory redemption provisions which, under circumstances outlined in the partner agreements, are certain to occur and obligate the Company to purchase each partner’s remaining 50% interests for $20,000 ($40,000 in the aggregate). The Company has purchased two separate $20,000 death and permanent total disability insurance policies to mitigate the Company’s cash draw if such events were to occur. These purchase obligations are also recorded in “Members’ interest subject to mandatory redemption and undistributed earnings” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The liability consists of the following: June 30, December 31, Members’ interest subject to mandatory redemption $ 40,000 $ 40,000 Net accumulated earnings 16,488 11,290 Total liability $ 56,488 $ 51,290 The Company must determine whether any of its entities, including these two 50% owned subsidiaries, in which it participates, is a VIE. The Company determined that Myers is a VIE and that the Company is the primary beneficiary because, pursuant to the terms of the Myers Operating Agreement, the Company is exposed to the majority of potential losses of the partnership. Summary financial information for Myers is as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Revenues $ 43,137 $ 54,364 $ 71,094 $ 98,726 Operating income $ 747 $ 1,049 $ 1,465 $ 1,204 Net income $ 366 $ 526 $ 717 $ 605 |

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] | |
Construction Joint Ventures | 5. CONSTRUCTION JOINT VENTURES Joint Ventures with a Controlling Interest —We consolidate any venture that is determined to be a VIE for which we are the primary beneficiary, or which we otherwise effectively control. The equity held by the remaining owners and their portions of net income (loss) are reflected in stockholders’ equity on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets line item “Noncontrolling interests” and in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations line item “Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests,” respectively. The Company determined that a joint venture in which the Company’s Ralph L. Wadsworth Construction subsidiary is a 51% owner is a VIE and the Company is the primary beneficiary. Summary financial information for this construction joint venture is as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Revenues $ 9,325 $ 3,404 $ 17,566 $ 7,468 Operating income $ 613 $ 375 $ 3,140 $ 671 Net income $ 615 $ 376 $ 3,143 $ 675 Joint Ventures with a Noncontrolling Interest —The Company accounts for unconsolidated joint ventures using a pro-rata basis in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and as a single line item (“Receivables from and equity in construction joint ventures”) in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. This method is a permissible modification of the equity method of accounting which is a common practice in the construction industry. Combined financial amounts of joint ventures in which the Company has a noncontrolling interest and the Company’s share of such amounts which are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are shown below: June 30, December 31, Current assets $ 138,804 $ 143,608 Current liabilities $ (95,350) $ (141,295) Sterling’s receivables from and equity in construction joint ventures $ 18,011 $ 16,653 Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Revenues $ 62,489 $ 43,466 $ 111,906 $ 70,312 Income before tax $ 8,780 $ 4,516 $ 13,415 $ 6,673 Sterling’s noncontrolling interest: Revenues $ 26,994 $ 19,377 $ 48,938 $ 32,459 Income before tax $ 3,676 $ 1,968 $ 5,811 $ 3,017 The caption “Receivables from and equity in construction joint ventures” includes undistributed earnings and receivables owed to the Company. Undistributed earnings are typically released to the joint venture partners after the customer accepts the project as completed and the warranty period, if any, has passed. Other —The use of joint ventures exposes us to a number of risks, including the risk that our partners may be unable or unwilling to provide their share of capital investment to fund the operations of the venture or complete their obligations to us, the venture, or ultimately, the customer. Differences in opinions or views among joint venture partners could also result in delayed decision-making or failure to agree on material issues, which could adversely affect the business and operations of the joint venture. In addition, agreement terms may subject us to joint and several liability for our venture partners, and the failure of our venture partners to perform their obligations could impose additional performance and financial obligations on us. The aforementioned factors could result in unanticipated costs to complete the projects, liquidated damages or contract disputes, including claims against our partners. |

Debt | 8. DEBT The Company’s outstanding debt was as follows: June 30, December 31, Term Loan Facility $ 315,000 $ 355,000 Revolving Credit Facility — — Credit Facility 315,000 355,000 Other debt 17,335 20,397 Total debt 332,335 375,397 Less - Current maturities of long-term debt (23,186) (77,434) Less - Unamortized debt issuance costs (5,618) (6,714) Total long-term debt $ 303,531 $ 291,249 Credit Facility —Our amended credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) provides the Company with senior secured debt financing in an amount up to $475,000 in the aggregate, consisting of (i) a senior secured first lien term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) in the amount of $400,000 (collectively, the “Credit Facility”) and (ii) a senior secured first lien revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $75,000 (with a $75,000 limit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $15,000 sublimit for swing line loans). The obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by substantially all assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors, subject to certain permitted liens and interests of other parties. The Credit Facility will mature on October 2, 2024. On June 28, 2021, the Credit Agreement was further amended to (i) decrease the applicable margins with respect to the rates per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement), Eurodollar Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement), Letter of Credit (as defined in the Credit Agreement) fees and the commitment fee payable under the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility; (ii) reduce the applicable percentages of excess cash flow required for application to mandatory prepayments of the Credit Facility; and (iii) decrease the amounts of the scheduled quarterly principal payments due under the Term Loan Facility. The Term Loan Facility bears interest at either the base rate plus a margin, or at a one-, two-, three-, six- or, if available, twelve-month LIBOR rate plus a margin, at the Company’s election. At June 30, 2021, the Company calculated interest using a one-month LIBOR rate and an applicable margin of 0.095% and 2.50% per annum, respectively. We continue to utilize an interest rate swap to hedge against $275,000 of the outstanding Term Loan Facility, which resulted in a weighted average interest rate of approximately 5.49% per annum during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Scheduled principal payments on the Term Loan Facility are made quarterly and total $24,700, $16,200, $22,300 and $18,300 for each of the years ending 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024, respectively. The Company is required to make mandatory prepayments on the Credit Facility with proceeds received from issuances of debt, events of loss and certain dispositions. The Company also is required to prepay the Credit Facility with its excess cash flow within 5 days after receipt of its annual audited financial statements. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the company made scheduled term loan payments of $16,556, an excess cash flow payment of $18,000 and an optional prepayment of $5,444. A final payment of all principal and interest then outstanding on the Term Loan Facility is due on October 2, 2024. The Revolving Credit Facility bears interest at the same rate options as the Term Loan Facility. In addition to interest on debt borrowings, we are assessed quarterly commitment fees on the unutilized portion of the facility as well as letter of credit fees on outstanding instruments. At June 30, 2021, we had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, providing $75,000 of available capacity. Debt Issuance Costs —The costs associated with the Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facility are reflected on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a direct reduction from the related debt liability and amortized over the terms of the respective facilities. Amortization of debt issuance costs was $604 and $1,264 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and $740 and $1,492 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and was recorded as interest expense. Additionally, due to early payments of $18,000 and $5,444 on the Term Loan Facility in the first and second quarters of 2021, respectively, we recorded losses on debt extinguishment of $94 and $431 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, related to debt issuance costs. Other Debt —During the second quarter of 2020, the Company’s two 50% owned subsidiaries received three short-term Paycheck Protection Program loans (the “PPP Loans”) totaling approximately $9,800. During the second quarter of 2021, the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) forgave one of the PPP Loans of approximately $3,000, of which the Company recorded a gain on debt extinguishment of $1,495 for its 50% portion of the gain. The remaining two PPP Loans are classified as short-term debt under “Current Liabilities” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2021, as we expect to receive a forgiveness determination by the SBA within the next twelve months. Compliance and Other —The Credit Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants that may, subject to certain exceptions, restrict the ability of us and our subsidiaries to, among other things, grant liens, incur additional indebtedness, make loans, advances or other investments, make non-ordinary course asset sales, declare or pay dividends or make other distributions with respect to equity interests, purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire capital stock or other equity interests, or merge or consolidate with any other person, among various other things. In addition, the Company is required to maintain certain financial covenants. As of June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all of our restrictive and financial covenants. The Company’s debt is recorded at its carrying amount in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying values of our debt outstanding approximated the fair values. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Financial Instruments | 9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Interest Rate Derivative —We continue to utilize a swap arrangement to hedge against interest rate variability associated with $275,000 of the $315,000 outstanding under the Term Loan Facility. The Company has designated its interest rate swap agreement as a cash flow hedging derivative. To the extent the derivative instrument is effective and the documentation requirements have been met, changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”) until the underlying hedged item is recognized in earnings. At June 30, 2021, the fair value of the swap recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) was a net loss of $4,719. Derivatives Disclosures Fair Value —Financial instruments are required to be categorized within a valuation hierarchy based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of the valuation hierarchy are as follows: • Level 1—Fair value is based on quoted prices in active markets. • Level 2—Fair value is based on internally developed models that use, as their basis, readily observable market parameters. Our derivative positions are classified within level 2 of the valuation hierarchy as they are valued using quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets. These level 2 derivatives are valued utilizing an income approach, which discounts future cash flow based on current market expectations and adjusts for credit risk. • Level 3—Fair value is based on internally developed models that use, as their basis, significant unobservable market parameters. The Company did not have any level 3 classifications at June 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020. The following table presents the fair value of the interest rate derivative by valuation hierarchy and balance sheet classification: June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Other current liabilities $ — $ (3,794) $ — $ (3,794) $ — $ (4,427) $ — $ (4,427) Other non-current liabilities — (1,108) — (1,108) — (2,629) — (2,629) Total liabilities at fair value $ — $ (4,902) $ — $ (4,902) $ — $ (7,056) $ — $ (7,056) OCI —The following table presents the total value recognized in OCI and reclassified from AOCI into earnings during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 for derivatives designated as cash flow hedges: Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 Before Tax Tax Net of Tax Before Tax Tax Net of Tax Net gain (loss) recognized in OCI $ (82) $ 19 $ (63) $ 44 $ (10) $ 34 Net amount reclassified from AOCI into earnings (1) 1,024 (233) 791 2,058 (469) 1,589 Change in other comprehensive income $ 942 $ (214) $ 728 $ 2,102 $ (479) $ 1,623 Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 Before Tax Tax Net of Tax Before Tax Tax Net of Tax Net gain (loss) recognized in OCI $ (1,031) $ 232 $ (799) $ (10,205) $ 2,296 $ (7,909) Net amount reclassified from AOCI into earnings 963 (217) 746 1,026 (231) 795 Change in other comprehensive income $ (68) $ 15 $ (53) $ (9,179) $ 2,065 $ (7,114) (1) Net unrealized losses totaling $3,611 are anticipated to be reclassified from AOCI into earnings during the next 12 months due to settlement of the associated underlying obligations. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company is required by its insurance providers to obtain and hold standby letters of credit. These letters of credit serve as a guarantee by the banking institution to pay the Company’s insurance providers the incurred claim costs attributable to its general liability, workers compensation and automobile liability claims, up to the amount stated in the standby letters of credit, in the event that these claims were not paid by the Company. These letters of credit are cash collateralized, resulting in the cash being designated as restricted. The Company, including its construction joint ventures and its consolidated 50% owned subsidiaries, is now and may in the future be involved as a party to various legal proceedings that are incidental to the ordinary course of business. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, does not believe that the outcome of these actions will have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company. |

Income Taxes | 12. INCOME TAXES The Company and its subsidiaries are based in the U.S. and file federal and various state income tax returns. The components of the provision for income taxes were as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Current tax expense $ 1,027 $ 1,938 $ 1,645 $ 2,209 Deferred tax expense 7,152 5,310 11,294 6,223 Income tax expense $ 8,179 $ 7,248 $ 12,939 $ 8,432 Cash paid for income taxes $ 1,700 $ — $ 1,700 $ 44 The 2021 effective income tax rate varied from the statutory rate primarily as a result of state income taxes, nondeductible compensation and other permanent differences. Due to net operating loss carryforwards, the Company expects no cash payments for federal income taxes for 2021 or 2020. The Company makes cash payments for state income taxes in states in which the Company does not have net operating loss carry forwards. At December 31, 2020 the Company had federal and state net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of $58,719 and $36,381, respectively, which expire at various dates in the next 18 years for U.S. federal income tax and in the next 7 to 18 years for the various state jurisdictions where we operate. Such NOL carryforwards expire beginning in 2028 through 2039. As a result of the Company’s analysis, management has determined that the Company does not have any material uncertain tax positions. |

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract] | |
Stock Incentive Plan And Other Equity Activity | 13. STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN AND OTHER EQUITY ACTIVITY General —The Company has a stock incentive plan (the “Stock Incentive Plan”) and an employee stock purchase plan (the “ESPP”) that are administered by the Compensation and Talent Development Committee of the Board of Directors. Under the Stock Incentive Plan, the Company can issue shares to employees and directors in the form of restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance share units (“PSUs”). Changes in common stock, additional paid in capital and treasury stock during the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily relate to activity associated with the Stock Incentive Plan, the ESPP and shares withheld for taxes. Share Grants —During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company granted the following awards under the Stock Incentive Plan: Shares Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value per Share RSAs 26 $ 23.22 RSUs 108 $ 20.55 PSUs (at target) 139 $ 20.54 Total shares granted 273 Share Issuances —During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company issued the following shares under the Stock Incentive Plan and the ESPP: Shares RSAs (issued upon grant) 26 RSUs (issued upon vesting) 40 PSUs (issued upon vesting) 621 ESPP (issued upon sale) 13 Total shares issued 700 Stock-Based Compensation Expense —During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized $2,015 and $3,850, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense, and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized $3,962 and $6,196 of stock-based compensation expense, respectively, primarily within general and administrative expenses. The Company recognizes forfeitures as they occur, rather than estimating expected forfeitures. Included within total stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 is $22 and $47, respectively, of expense related to the ESPP, and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized $18 and $36, respectively, of expense related to the ESPP. Shares Withheld for Taxes —The Company withheld zero and 246 shares for taxes on RSU/PSU stock-based compensation vestings for $0 and $5,619 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. AOCI —During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, changes in AOCI were a result of net gains (losses) recognized in OCI and amounts reclassified from AOCI into earnings related to our interest rate derivative.

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Information | 16. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company’s internal and public segment reporting are aligned based upon the services offered by its operating segments. The Company’s operations consist of three reportable segments: Heavy Civil, Specialty Services and Residential. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker evaluates the performance of the operating segment based upon revenue and income from operations. Each segment’s income from operations reflects corporate costs, allocated based primarily upon revenue. The following table presents total revenue and income from operations by reportable segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Revenues Heavy Civil $ 203,153 $ 220,448 $ 350,207 $ 376,063 Specialty Services 151,904 135,703 275,992 240,426 Residential 46,609 43,887 90,783 80,237 Total Revenues $ 401,666 $ 400,038 $ 716,982 $ 696,726 Operating Income Heavy Civil $ 4,404 $ 3,896 $ 5,494 $ 274 Specialty Services 22,907 23,246 39,084 34,360 Residential 5,409 6,043 10,897 11,127 Subtotal 32,720 33,185 55,475 45,761 Acquisition related costs — (139) — (612) Total Operating Income $ 32,720 $ 33,046 $ 55,475 $ 45,149 |

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) | 6 Months Ended |
Jun. 30, 2021 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Presentation Basis | Presentation Basis— The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in accordance with accounting policies generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and reflect all wholly owned subsidiaries and those entities the Company is required to consolidate. See Note 4 - Consolidated 50% Owned Subsidiaries and Note 5 - Construction Joint Ventures for further discussion of the Company’s consolidation policy for those entities that are not wholly owned. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Values presented within tables (excluding per share data) are in thousands. Reclassifications have been made to historical financial data in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to conform to the current year presentation. |
Estimates and Judgments | Estimates and Judgments— The preparation of the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Certain accounting estimates of the Company require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application. These include the recognition of revenue and earnings from construction contracts over time, the valuation of long-lived assets, goodwill and purchase accounting estimates. Management continually evaluates all of its estimates and judgments based on available information and experience; however, actual results could differ from these estimates. |
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable— Receivables are generally based on amounts billed to the customer in accordance with contractual provisions. Receivables are written off based on the individual credit evaluation and specific circumstances of the customer, when such treatment is warranted. The Company performs a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information and existing economic conditions to determine if there are potential uncollectible receivables. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our allowance for our estimate of expected credit losses was zero. As is customary, we have agreed to indemnify our bonding company for all losses incurred by it in connection with bonds that are issued, and we have granted our bonding company a security interest in certain assets, including accounts receivable, as collateral for such obligations. |
Contracts in Progress | Contracts in Progress— For performance obligations satisfied over time, amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals (e.g., biweekly or monthly) or upon achievement of contractual milestones. Typically, Sterling bills for advances or deposits from its customers before revenue is recognized, resulting in contract liabilities. However, the Company occasionally bills subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets. Many of the contracts under which the Company performs work also contain retainage provisions. Retainage refers to that portion of our billings held for payment by the customer pending satisfactory completion of the project. Unless reserved, the Company assumes that all amounts retained by customers under such provisions are fully collectible. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, contract assets included $45,924 and $44,412 of retainage, respectively, and contract liabilities included $39,682 and $33,856 of retainage, respectively. Retainage on active contracts is classified as current regardless of the term of the contract and is generally collected within one year of the completion of a contract. We anticipate collecting approximately 68% of our June 30, 2021 retainage during the next twelve months. These assets and liabilities are reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet within “Contract assets” and “Contract liabilities” on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. Revenue recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 that was included in the contract liability balance on December 31, 2020 was $141,813 and $297,370, respectively. Revenue recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 that was included in the contract liability balance on December 31, 2019 was $132,225 and $278,491, respectively. |
Cash and Restricted Cash | Cash and Restricted Cash— Our cash is comprised of highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less. Restricted cash of $6,411 and $6,457 is included in “Other current assets” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. This primarily represents cash deposited by the Company into separate accounts and designated as collateral for standby letters of credit in the same amount in accordance with contractual agreements. |
