Our Journey
It all started with a vision. Jonathan Horst, a man on a mission, teamed up with his father, Jacob Horst, whose prowess in managing paperwork and quotes laid our foundation. Together, they navigated the first year, setting a robust path for growth and success.
In January 2024, our story embraced a new chapter with the arrival of Javin, our Chief Operating Officer. A former owner of a logging company for five years, Javin’s shift from logging to construction was a strategic move influenced by market trends and a passion for building. His extensive experience in business management, coupled with expertise in construction and excavation, makes him an invaluable asset in our operations.
