Founded over four decades ago by Kurt Martin, Martin Construction, Inc. has become a pillar of earthwork construction in the Midwest. From its humble beginnings in Dickinson, North Dakota, we have grown into a multi-state operation, driven by a simple mission: to deliver efficient, cost-effective construction solutions that shape the future of our communities.
In 1978, Martin Construction began its journey with a used TS-14 scraper, marking the start of a legacy that continues to shape the Midwest’s landscape today. This humble piece of equipment, now a symbol of our roots, represents the hard work and determination that have fueled our growth. From modest beginnings in Dickinson, North Dakota, to major projects across multiple states, that same spirit drives us forward as we build on the solid foundation laid over four decades ago.
As Martin Construction evolved, so did the scale of our projects. What began with small highway grading and local site development grew into large-scale infrastructure work, oil field development, and environmental remediation. Our team’s dedication to innovation and quality has allowed us to take on complex projects that enhance the communities we serve. With a diverse fleet and a talented workforce, we continue to meet the demands of a rapidly changing industry, building roads, airports, dams, and more.
At Martin Construction, we believe in doing more than just completing projects—we build legacies. From our very first job to the vast portfolio we manage today, our focus has always been on delivering results that stand the test of time. Each project reflects our unwavering commitment to quality, safety, and community impact. As we continue to grow, we’re proud to carry forward the values that started it all: integrity, dedication, and a passion for building a better future.
