The Construction Source America

“We approach our work with the utmost passion, pride and dedication,” Mitch says. “Our goal is to be the best construction company in north- central Minnesota.” Mitch is a fourth-generation builder – his father, grandfather and great-grandfather were all contractors before him, so he believes that building “was kind of in my blood.” When he was a teenager, he did odd jobs with his grandfather (including pouring concrete, pushing wheelbarrows around, and cleaning up job sites). Later on, he learned the carpentry trade from his dad. At 17-years-old he framed his first cabin. Hy-tec Construction was officially formed in 1989. Mitch started his career with the company working there in the summers as a labourer. After graduating from college with a degree in Construction Management, he joinedfull-time as a superintendent. He spent seven years in that role before becoming General Manager. In the decade since, Hy-Tec has evolved and expanded considerably. They went from a 30-man crew turning over $7 million a year, to a near-95-man crew doing roughly $40 million a year in volume. “We’ve grown immensely,” Mitch says, “and it’s all come from hard work and taking care of past clients.” OCT - NOV 2021 “We approach our work with the utmost passion, pride and dedication,” Mitch says. “Our goal is to be the best construction company in north-central Minnesota.”
