Building relationships and buildings in the safest and most cost efficient way possible while maintaining the highest degree of quality and emphasis on sustainable design solutions has been Poettker Construction Company’s mission since 1980.  We are a second generation family-owned and certified veteran-owned business licensed in twenty four states.  We specialize in providing construction services that exceed the client’s expectations in all facets of the construction process.

The hallmark of our projects is the lasting partnerships that we develop with our clients, vendors and other team members.  These collaborative relationships are founded on mutual respect, professionalism, integrity, safety, quality, and dedication to the needs and goals of our clients.  Our reputation of providing superb customer focused services has allowed us to grow our business primarily through repeat clients and referrals from past business partners including Ameren, Children’s Learning Adventure, Continental Tire, Menards, Planet Fitness, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Walmart, and local schools and hospitals.

Our primary objective is to provide a safe working environment for our employees and business partners.  Poettker Construction employees have worked more than 720,000 man hours without a lost time incident, maintained an employer modification rating (EMR) of 0.73, and were recognized for the 5th consecutive year for our outstanding safety performance.

Our team of LEED professionals strives to achieve energy efficient and sustainable solutions through our companywide recycling efforts, use of recycled building materials, and energy efficient building solutions with the ultimate goal of reducing our client’s operational energy usage.

We are a proud supporter of Big Brothers Big Sisters, Boy Scouts of America, Community Link, as well as local hospitals, schools, religious institutions and other non-profit organizations.
