About Us
Municipal Builders, Inc. was
founded in January of 1993 by John R. Wegner.
John’s decision to start the business was a result of his
entrepreneurial spirit and 14 years of experience as an estimator
and project manager for Barbarossa and Sons located in Osseo, MN.
John worked in the office for the Plant Division of
Barbarossa and Sons which specialized in the construction of
municipal treatment plants.
Nearly all of the work now performed by Municipal Builders
falls under the municipal water or wastewater treatment market.
In the early years
Municipal Builders, Inc. concentrated on building municipal well houses,
pumping stations and smaller treatment systems.
Currently projects in the two to seven million dollar range
comprise the majority of the contracts completed by Municipal
Builders, Inc. Nearly all of
the work is completed under the design-bid-build approach with the
owner contracting with an engineer separately on the design.
Municipal
Builders, Inc. is a merit shop company with a core belief in the
value of each of its employees.
We exercise the right to negotiate their compensation with each
employee based on their individual performance and their value to
the company.
We have very little employee turnover due to high personal
satisfaction and diversity of the work performed.
