What Scott Johnson & Company, Inc. does

Scott Johnson & Company, Inc. is a privately held, founder-owned general contractor and property manager headquartered in Warroad, MN, in continuous operation since 1996. The company delivers residential and commercial construction and remodeling services — including new construction, custom homes, additions, and installation of windows, siding, garages, decks, roofing, and gutters — using an in-house team of carpenters, plumbers, and flooring experts rather than subcontractors. It is fully licensed and bonded under Minnesota License #BC217768 and has completed projects for government, institutional, and SMB clients including Baudette Airport, Roseau Splash Park, Warroad Park, Angle Inlet School, and Lake Street Commons.

In parallel with its construction business, the company operates a small residential rental portfolio consisting of St. Mary's Lofts (7 units, Warroad), Homestead Apartments (8 units, Roseau), and Hank's Place, a vacation cabin distributed via Airbnb. Recurring rental income supplements project-based construction revenue. Customer acquisition is sales-led and locally focused: the company relies on direct phone outreach, a WordPress-based company website, local SEO, and word-of-mouth referrals in the Warroad–Roseau corridor of northern Minnesota.

Pricing is quote-based and project-specific for construction work. The company partners with Synchrony to offer promotional consumer financing — Deferred Interest, Reduced Interest, and No Interest (including 0%) programs — to expand purchasing power for larger remodeling projects. No revenue, headcount, or funding figures are disclosed; the operation is bootstrapped with no institutional investors, parent company, or M&A activity. The company's competitive position rests on 25-plus years of local reputation, in-house trade expertise, and ownership of stabilized rental assets rather than on proprietary technology, scale, or geographic breadth.
