Hammer Construction

What Hammer Construction does

Hammer Construction, Inc. is a private, family-owned heavy-civil and construction services company headquartered in Norman, Oklahoma, with operations across the state and on a nationwide project basis. The firm traces its history to the 1950s as Hammer Construction and Dozer Service, was rebuilt and renamed under its current identity in 1990 by Shirley Hammer, and is now led by President Robby Moore following a 2016 generational succession. Hammer employs roughly 51 to 100 staff and operates from a corporate office, an equipment yard in Norman, and a Kingfisher field office.

The company's offering is organized into five integrated service lines: oil and gas/energy production support (roustabout crews, tank battery installation, compressor station maintenance, pipe installation and repair); excavation and site preparation (mass earth-moving, drilling pad sites, lease roads, commercial site development, surveying, erosion control); utility construction (sanitary sewers, water distribution, storm drainage, road reconstruction, underground utilities); concrete services (pier foundations, footers, paving, driveways, parking lots, culvert and drainage solutions, demolition); and ancillary services (hydrovac excavation, pressure washing, over-the-road trucking, pipeline maintenance, air curtain trench burning). Operations are supported by a modern fleet of Caterpillar and Komatsu heavy equipment and a workforce trained to OSHA 10, OSHA 30, Excavation Competent Persons, Safeland, and Competent Equipment Operation standards, with proprietary capabilities including hydro-vac non-destructive digging and air-curtain debris incineration.

Hammer generates revenue through project-based contracts ranging from day work up to $5 million, sold primarily via direct enterprise field sales and relationship-based referrals. Its principal customers are oil and gas and energy companies (including OGE and Ovintiv), municipalities and government agencies, commercial and private developers, and general contractors (including JE Dunn and Burns & McDonnell). Pricing is quote-based with no publicly disclosed standard rate card, contracts typically span multi-year horizons, and the firm combines its own crews and equipment fleet with a multi-service consolidated delivery model to serve as a single point of contact for site preparation, utility work, and concrete scopes.
