The Roots of Dewitt Construction: From Farming to Contracting

The story of Dewitt Construction is one of dedication, hard work, and a passion for building. John DeWitt, the owner and driving force behind the company, spent 30 years as a farmer before transitioning to the world of construction. His first project—a Victorian house and a 400-cow dairy barn—was a resounding success, sparking a new career path at the age of 54. Now, at 74, John continues to lead Dewitt Construction with the same enthusiasm and commitment to excellence that has defined his work for the past two decades.

John's background in farming has given him a unique perspective on construction. He understands the importance of building structures that are not only functional but also durable and aesthetically pleasing. This approach has helped Dewitt Construction earn a reputation for reliability, quality, and integrity in the local community.
