Baker Construction

What Baker Construction does

Baker Construction (legal entity: Baker Concrete Construction, Inc.) is a specialty concrete subcontractor headquartered in Monroe, Ohio, founded by Dan Baker in the late 1960s/early 1970s and operating today as a subsidiary of Baker Construction Enterprises. The company delivers integrated concrete construction services across five core market segments — Industrial, Industrial Distribution, Commercial, Restoration, and Water/Wastewater Infrastructure — to general contractors (Clark Construction, Moss Construction, Poole & Kent, Balfour Beatty) and directly to project owners (Miami-Dade Water and Sewer Department, Cincinnati Children's Hospital, ExxonMobil, Aligned Energy, Siemens Wind Power).

Baker's technical capabilities span cast-in-place concrete, mass concrete, post-tension concrete, tilt-wall construction, and concrete restoration, supported by Building Information Modeling (BIM), self-consolidating concrete (SCC) expertise, and AI-powered video analytics deployed through helmet-mounted cameras for jobsite safety. Notable mega-project executions include 450,000+ cubic yards of concrete across the ExxonMobil Campus (The Woodlands, TX), a 435,000 GBSF Aligned Energy data center foundation package, 24,000 cubic yards and 1,500 tons of rebar for Cincinnati Children's proton therapy center, and a 5,940-cubic-yard mat foundation poured in 13 hours at the Great American Tower. The firm has completed 15,000+ projects, employs 10,000+ co-workers, operates through five regional headquarters plus affiliated brands (Dugan & Meyers, LRT Restoration Technologies, TWC, BEAM), and has held the #1 position on ENR's Top 20 Concrete Specialty Contractor list for 17 consecutive years.

Revenue is generated through fixed-price and cost-plus specialty concrete contracts, delivered via enterprise field sales and competitive bidding. The company employs structured workforce development (Five Tours internship program, Field Leadership Academy, Mobile Training Truck) to sustain its trades pipeline, and pursues geographic expansion through asset acquisitions — most recently the March 2025 purchase of Cleveland Cement Contractors' equipment and assets. No public revenue, financial filings, or pricing disclosures are available; the firm is privately held under family leadership.
