About Us

History...

At age fifteen Johnny Leon took a summer job as a construction laborer making six dollars an hour. Digging utility trenches and working on piping installations for forty plus hours a week taught Johnny the value of hard work and gave him a love for construction. His enthusiasm was apparent to his boss who gave him a two dollar an hour raise and offered him a full time permanent position. Johnny went home and asked his mom if he could go to night school and take the construction job being offered. His mom made him promise that he would go to night school and finish his education, a promise that was kept, and Johnny’s career in construction began.
