Koch Construction

What Koch Construction does

Koch Construction is a privately-held, employee-owned general contractor founded in 1980 in Cedar Falls, Iowa, that delivers residential and commercial construction, remodeling, and roofing services across the Cedar Valley and broader Iowa market. The firm operates a direct-to-consumer model with no resellers or channel partners, acquiring customers via phone, website inquiries, and a physical showroom co-located at its 215 E Main St. headquarters. Service offerings span kitchen and bathroom remodeling, room additions, sunrooms, decks, specialty trim and carpentry, roofing (flat and steep-slope), window and door replacement, plus commercial work including engineered steel buildings, wood pole buildings, and interior/exterior commercial remodeling.

Project delivery is structured around a proprietary 7-step "Koch Process" — from initial information gathering through on-site assessment, proposal, design, showroom visit, and finalization — supported by in-house designers using Chief Architect software for visualization and a curated showroom offering Wood Harbor Cabinetry and Toto plumbing fixtures. The firm is employee-owned by five partners with combined 98 years of tenure following the 2020 buyout from founders Jeff and Mark Koch, and it maintains L.E.E.D. project management training and IRCA roofing certifications. Revenue is project-based one-time billing via custom proposals following on-site assessment, with all pricing determined individually rather than through published tiers; the company markets organically through Facebook, Instagram, and an email newsletter, relying on demonstrated craftsmanship and word-of-mouth in a defined Iowa geography.
