Our mission at Simonson Construction Services, Inc. is to provide exceptional construction services at competitive prices. We are committed to excellence, craftsmanship, and safety in all aspects of our demanding business. Our reputation for quality and dependability has been won through hard work, ambition, safety, honesty and the desire to be a superior presence in our chosen business. Simonson Construction Services, Inc. will continue to earn our clients’ confidence through consistent performance, quality and innovation.
Simonson Builders, Inc. was founded in 1974 by Bob Simonson on the premise that quality construction principles and attention to detail should be unwavering standards. It was a way of life and the genesis of a small company. As time went on, the need for excavating services rekindled Bob’s entrepreneurial spirit and Simonson Excavation Inc. was founded on the same premise of Simonson Builders Inc. In 2005, these companies merged to become Simonson Construction Services, Inc. Our commitment to our projects, our customers, and delivering the best product possible were our founding principals and remain the foundation of the structure that has built Simonson Construction Services, Inc. into a recognized leader in the industry.

Simonson Construction Services, Inc. operates out of a modern, efficient shop and office facility with over 12,000 square feet of space that allows for equipment repair, project and office staff, advanced computer and CAD systems, blueprint reproduction, meeting space and a variety of other functions all performed under one roof. And it doesn’t stop with the construction of a project. Service after completion has always been a part of the Simonson tradition and commitment to service. If you call, we respond quickly without reservation. Our past projects are a great source of pride, and our past customers have become customers for life.

Simonson Construction Services, Inc. has won several awards in recognition of our hard work and commitment to excellence.

Simonson Construction Services, Inc. feels it is our company’s responsibility to support and actively participate in the communities in which we do business. The concept of “giving back” has guided the company since its beginning. Through donations of skilled labor, in-kind, and financial gifts, the people of Simonson Construction Services, Inc. have gladly contributed in excess of a half of a million dollars to worthy and needful causes. Our hope is to return some of the generosity that has been bestowed upon us by our community.
With over 30 years of construction experience, Simonson Construction Services, Inc. offers our clients an exceptional foundation of construction knowledge coupled with a dedication to excellence and integrity. During that time, we have built thousands of successful projects, establishing a reputation for unsurpassed quality and an unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction.

For the past several years Simonson Construction Services, Inc. has provided in-house training to our employees to broaden each individuals’ skills through our skill enhancement program. In addition to “on the job training”, we provide both a classroom and workshop environment for the employees to gain experience. This allows everyone to ask questions and convey answers to the entire group rather than to a single individual.

In today’s marketplace, jobsite safety is a major concern. Simonson Construction Services, Inc. takes safety very seriously. Each employee has received OSHA’s 10-Hour Safety Training Certificate and the Supervisors have received the 30-Hour Safety Training Certificate. Jobsite accidents are detrimental to each individual as well as to the company. Therefore we constantly conduct jobsite audits and have scheduled toolbox talks where the superintendents gather everyone into the job trailer to discuss safety issues or concerns. These meetings are documented and everyone in attendance is required to acknowledge the training. With this effort in safety, we have achieved a gold rating in the Associated Builders and Contractors Safety Training and Evaluation Process. Our goal is to have zero lost time accidents throughout the course of every project.

Simonson Construction Services, Inc. participate in the Ohio Bureau of Workers Compensation Drug Free Work Place Program, which is also recognized by the Ohio Department of Transportation. In the work place, this program heightens the awareness of drug and alcohol use. Our random drug testing policy is a significant deterrent used to promote a drug and alcohol free workplace resulting in a safer jobsite.
