In 1890, a young carpenter named John Findorff started aconstruction company under the name J.H. Findorff. Its firstproject involved carpentry work at UW-Madison’s Armory,better known today as the “Red Gym.” This initial undertaking began a long tradition of Findorff constructing notable structures not only on the University’s campus,including the Chazen Art Museum’s expansion and WisconsinInstitute for Discovery, but also throughout Madison.Such projects include the American Family Children’s Hospital, Monona Terrace, and Overture Center for the Arts.

Findorff officially incorporated in 1946 as J.H. Findorff &Son Inc., the Company’s current name. In the early 1970s, Findorff became active in the Milwaukee market and openeda full-service office by 1987. The Milwaukee office has contributed to the early success of the Froedtert MemorialLutheran Hospital and Henry Reuss Federal Plaza.

As time progressed, Findorff established itself as a leading builder in the Midwest. The Company has grown to employ an average of 700 people between its Madison and Milwaukee offices. Additionally, our industry experience has earned us over 100 awards just in the past 10 years alone; recognizing our commitment to quality construction and civic initiatives. We take tremendous pride in everything we do and this level of recognition sincerely represents our history, knowledge, experience, and character.

It is with certainty that Findorff has consistently shown integrity and earned tremendous credibility over its long history in the construction industry. Our breath of experience has allowed us to successfully construct projects of any scope and size. We continuously exemplify this high standard to best support our clients andtheir stakeholders.

The core values of Findorff, Character, Community, and Craftsmanship, have proudly stayed true to our modest beginnings for over a century.
