Ames History: Values and Vision
From Ames Construction’s first day of business, values and vision have been the driving forces of success.
Led by the Ames family and supported by a loyal workforce, valued clients, and trusted partners, the small, local excavating company grew into a premier heavy civil and industrial contractor working nationwide.
“When we started Ames Construction in 1962, we didn’t have a written business plan, but we had a shared vision: To do our best for the customer, perform with the highest standards of integrity and workmanship, and deliver what we promised. As the company grew, so did the vision. We began to see opportunities in new markets and expanded our capabilities to meet those emerging challenges.”
