Logo Design Brief
We need an updated logo for a commercial general contractor based in Central Florida. Company name is: M PAUL General Contractors. Current logo is an 'm' in a circle and below it the words 'M PAUL' underlined with the words 'general contractor' much smaller and under the words M PAUL. The 'm' and M PAUL is a darker blue and the 'general contractor' is a light silver grey. The problem with this logo is that it looks outdated. The m in the circle looks just like an 'm & m' candy. There are three fonts (the 'm', M PAUL, and general contractors are all different fonts. And the fonts are outdated. The company builds only commercial (ground-up buildings, medical offices, specialty, restaurant, etc...) - NO residential. We would like to keep the circle but updated and modern. The colors need to stick with a blue (on the darker side of blue) and the silvery grey (and/or white). I imagine the font and the colors will provide the solid construction feeling and maybe the circle will represent the team of people behind the company - the integrity, values and company culture (the circle can add not only a design element but a bit of a softer balance to the logo). We like simplicity. We would also be open to the idea of an open circle (maybe a bit more 'wave'like') and the M PAUL coming out of the circle rather than the current logo which essentially puts two m's side-by-side ('m' M PAUL).
Updates
Thank you to everyone who is submitting! After looking at the submissions we have decided that we do NOT have to keep the circle. We now see that we are looking for a great 'M' or a great 'M PAUL'. And the color does not have to be dark blue (although a blue is probably preferred). Please just be creative. Simple is better. Thank you!!

Project Deadline Extended
Reason: I am extending the deadline because we realized that the parameters we put on the design were too strict. Please just be creative. The only mandate is that is must say 'M PAUL' and 'General Contractors'. We are also going to upgrade to a committed payment vs a refundable status and I want the extra time for more submissions. Thank you!!

Requirements
Must have
- Some shade of blue (darker preferred) - looking for a rich,deep, beautiful blue. We would like the new logo to have the circle on the left and next to the 'M PAUL' - not stacked like it is now.
Nice to have
- Currently we like the silvery gray touch with the blue.
