Ron Miedema Concrete

What Ron Miedema Concrete does

Ron Miedema Concrete Contractor, Inc. is a privately held, family-owned concrete construction company headquartered in Jenison, Michigan, founded by Ronald Miedema in 1962 and operated across three generations. The company delivers poured concrete foundation walls and flatwork services for two primary customer segments: residential homeowners and builders (foundations, footings, basement floors, garage floors, driveways, patios, sidewalks, retaining walls, colored concrete) and commercial clients (building foundations, parking lots, drives, sitework including curbs and gutters). It also operates a wholly-owned pre-cast foundation wall subsidiary, Great Lakes Superior Walls (GLSW), acquired in 2009, which serves Michigan and northern Indiana and Ohio.

The core technology is industry-standard concrete construction: boom pumps and line pumps acquired in the 1990s enable placement in hard-to-access areas such as over-the-house backyards or tree-obstructed sites, and the pre-cast facility at GLSW produces above-grade pre-cast walls. There is no proprietary software platform; the offering is a physical construction service backed by equipment, experienced foremen with long tenure, and a one-year warranty on materials and workmanship.

The business model is project-based, quote-driven, and one-time per engagement. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; customers request estimates via dedicated website forms segmented by walls versus flatwork, submitting property address, start date, and project plans. Revenue derives from residential and commercial construction projects across West Michigan (Traverse City to South Haven, Lakeshore to Lansing), supplemented by GLSW's three-state pre-cast reach. Go-to-market is sales-led, combining direct website quote requests with longstanding builder and contractor relationships, exemplified by 15+ year exclusive contractor arrangements.

Core offering

Ron Miedema Concrete is a West Michigan concrete construction company that pours concrete foundations (footings, basement walls, retaining walls) and installs flatwork (basement floors, garage floors, driveways, patios, sidewalks, curbs, gutters, colored concrete) for residential and commercial customers. It also operates the wholly-owned pre-cast foundation wall subsidiary Great Lakes Superior Walls, serving Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio.

Product overview

Ron Miedema Concrete is a traditional concrete construction contractor offering residential and commercial concrete services across West Michigan. The company operates two core service lines: Residential Projects and Commercial Projects, both encompassing foundation work (footings, poured-in-place foundations, retaining walls, damp-proofing/waterproofing) and flatwork (floors, driveways, steps, sidewalks, curbs and gutters, patios, porches, slabs, colored concrete). The company also acquired Great Lakes Superior Walls (GLSW) in 2009, a pre-cast foundation wall company that operates as a sister brand serving Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio. The product portfolio is a service-based offering rather than a software platform, delivering physical concrete construction services to homeowners, builders, and commercial businesses.
