Comstock Construction

What Comstock Construction does

Comstock Construction is a fourth-generation, family-owned general contractor founded in 1924 in Wahpeton, ND, providing end-to-end construction and facility services across North Dakota, Minnesota, and South Dakota. The company operates three integrated divisions — Civil Construction (earthwork, excavation, underground utilities, demolition, environmental services, emergency response, and snow removal), Commercial Construction (general contracting with CMAR, Design-Build, CMA, and Design-Bid-Build delivery methods), and a Service Division (commercial HVAC, plumbing, electrical, remediation, and seasonal facility maintenance) — serving education, healthcare, government, housing, religious, retail, sports and recreation, commercial, manufacturing, and industrial clients with projects typically ranging from $1M to $30M+.

The company's core technology is operational rather than digital: self-perform crews execute earthwork, concrete, precast erection, structural steel erection, and rough and finish carpentry in-house, providing quality control and schedule management that competitors must subcontract. Supporting certifications include Certified Precast Erector S2 (PPI), Authorized Nucor Builder, and Authorized Behlen Builder, alongside memberships in ABC, the ND Safety Council, and the Tri-State Safety Association. Documented project scale includes an 87,000 SF Career Innovation Center, a 35,786 SF headquarters completed in August 2024, a $20M elementary school, and a 24,700 SF whole-building HVAC modernization.

Revenue is generated through project-based general contracting fees plus recurring facility-service contracts. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales via a dedicated Business Development team that engages clients during pre-construction for value engineering rather than competing purely on hard-bid price; pricing is custom and quote-based for each project. The company has four office locations (Wahpeton, Fargo, Fergus Falls, and Aberdeen), 101–250 employees, no external investors or parent company, and has remained entirely privately held across four generations of Comstock family ownership.
