What QBC does
QBC LLC is a privately held, multi-scope commercial subcontractor headquartered in DeForest, Wisconsin, founded in 1998 by four owners who remain with the business (Brian Statz, Kurt Wagner, Brian Keller, and Matt Uebersetzig). The company bundles six construction-related service lines under a single contract: rough carpentry, finish carpentry, cabinetry, countertops, flooring, and building materials supply. Technical capability is anchored in skilled field crews and an in-house 27,000 sq. ft. fabrication facility in DeForest that supports stone/countertop fabrication and custom cabinetry work, combined with a building materials supply operation covering framing lumber, trusses, cabinetry, countertops, and finishes.
The company's go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, targeting four primary B2B segments: developers, general contractors, property managers, and architects/designers. Customer acquisition leverages direct outreach ('Invite Us To Bid' CTAs), a regional field-sales presence, and supporting digital channels (LinkedIn, blog, newsletter, YouTube). QBC operates primarily across Wisconsin and Northern Illinois, with installation crews concentrated in Dane County, Madison, Greater Milwaukee, and the lower Fox Valley metros, and materials delivery covering a broader Wisconsin/Northern Illinois footprint.
The revenue model is project-based and quote-driven, with contract values ranging from approximately $50,000 tenant rehabs to $115M+ multi-family developments. QBC functions as both labor partner and material supplier under one contract, creating single-point accountability and pricing transparency for customers. The company is BBB-accredited, has completed thousands of projects cumulatively, and reports 101-250 employees. It remains privately held with no external funding, no parent company, and no disclosed revenue figure.
