We are a long-standing, La Crosse–based general contractor with deep roots in our community and a strong reputation for delivering high-quality commercial and institutional projects. Our work spans healthcare, education, commercial, and community facilities, and we pride ourselves on doing things the right way—with integrity, craftsmanship, and teamwork.

• Manage RFIs, submittals, change orders, and document control to ensure accurate and timely project information.
• Assist with estimating and preconstruction, including quantity takeoffs and subcontractor/supplier quote solicitation.
• Help develop and maintain project schedules, track progress, and coordinate with field teams and subcontractors.
• Participate in jobsite meetings, site walks, punch lists, and turnover to ensure quality and client satisfaction.
