Best Place to Work in the Cedar Valley: Third Place 2005
Koch Construction continues doing everything with excellence, just as they have for the last 25 years. Employees who are treated with "The Platinum Rule" - That is, Treat Others How You Would Want To Be Treated, are free to go out and produce the best results possible, knowing they have an employer who strives to treat them all with respect. Attention to employee satisfaction as well as customer satisfaction has placed Koch Construction at number three in Cedar Valley's Top 25 Places to Work, “You’ve got to know your employees,” Jeff Koch says. “They’re all different, so you can’t treat everybody the same.” Koch Construction’s individualized attention to employees translates to respectable room for advancement and a very low employee turnover rate compared to other construction companies. “Coming from a family based business, we try to make this a place where you can make a living and have a family,” said Mark Koch (Jeff’s brother who bought into the company 16 years ago), who works as a project manager and estimator. “ We try to give our people the chance to stay and grow year-round and have steady hours year-round.” If you would like to be a part of Koch's Construction team, go to the contact page and fill out an application.

The Big 50 Remodeler
"You can have big egos with craftsmen. Here, there's a lot of respect for the other guy's talents"
-Jeff Koch

"The companies chosen must illustrate teamwork and have an impact on the industry. They must also show business savvy, skills in sales and marketing as well as fit a niche in the industry. Koch Construction is one such company. The unique way that the employees consistently put forth the extra effort for a supurb product makes Koch Construction a cut above the rest. Koch Construction does little things day in and day out to create a company where the employees are proud and excited to be a part of it and where the customers are happy to spread the word to others and hire the company again and again."
-Remodeling Magazine, May 2000

We Stay On Site Until The Job Is Done
We will not come to your house, dump our materials all over your lawn and leave for days on end.
According to Robert Kramer, "Koch did excellent work. Workers were professional, courteous, attentive to detail, answered questions and picked up all rubble. This good experience will result in future work. Thank you."

We've been in the business long enough to set realistic goals and expectations. Whether we're helping a high-profile public attraction make good on its promised opening date or finishing an academic building for the first day of school, we always set precise, realistic schedules - and we meet them.

Feedback from Happy Customers



We often receive letters from customers who tell us how much they appreciate our craftsmanship and professionalism. Here are just a few of many:

Just a quick note to express my appreciation for your prompt response to our roofing needs several months ago. I sincerely appreciated your willingness to schedule the work (done to the building) given the demands this summer. Your courteous, professional and immediate response to our roofing needs was greatly appreciated.
-Thomas E.

We just wanted to thank you again for all your hard work. We are really enjoying the new space downstairs. Andy has claimed some of it as his own. He enjoys showing off the place when his friends come over and it's also nice for them to have some space of their own to hang out. Andy and his friends think the whole construction process was "pretty cool" and that the basement and bathroom are "awesome". By the way, he wears his Koch Construction t-shirt with pride.
Of course, you know that I think the whole project is beautiful also. The room came out better than I imagined. I am so happy with the workmanship and attention to detail. Replacing the windows upstairs and the door to the garage have eliminated a lot of drafts - maybe the heating bill won't be so bad this winter! I appreciated all of your ideas and suggestions, it really made the whole experience even better.
-Mary & Andy
