Messer Construction

Our three generations of active family ownership and our reputation as a leading North American construction partner have been built on the same motto - "Wanted: A Hard Job." It's who we are. Graycor Construction has never stopped pursuing and perfecting ways to exceed our clients' expectations. In new construction and renovation, our proactive management style, value engineering, sophisticated project planning systems and focused constructability methods enable our team to manage projects more aggressively without sacrificing safety and quality.

We were founded in 1921 as Chicago Concrete Breaking Company. Soon after, we made our name with an extremely challenging high-profile project removing a large section of retaining wall along a functioning stretch of railroad, on the east side of Michigan Ave. Despite a driving snowstorm and those who said it could not be done, our passion, ingenuity and expertise proved we were here to stay. It was the origin of our famed company motto: Wanted: A hard job. Over the nextnine decades we havecontinued to prove ourselves as a partner devoted to our clients above all else.
