Adhering to High Standards

Danbert Construction is a well-known name in Central Ohio construction, a reputation that dates back to 1982 when Bob Wilson founded the company. Wilson, who spent two decades working in highway construction and operations, used his experience to fuel the company’s early growth. He also demonstrated a willingness to wear many hats, from estimator and accountant to foreman and laborer. Ultimately, he built a multi-million-dollar company known for quality, safety, and integrity.

When Wilson passed in 2006, two long time employees, Matt Lemon and Joe Reinhard, purchased the company. Wilson had inspired them with his dedication, experience, and commitment to delivering an honest, quality solution with safety at the forefront. Years later, the new owners continue to uphold these same values, which serve as a backdrop for the company’s immense growth and stellar reputation.

100% Employee Ownership

Years later, the company is embarking on another new chapter as it implements an employee stock ownership plan, or ESOP. The decision to transition ownership of the company to the employees not only rewards them for the role they’ve played so far, but it offers them further incentive to grow the company. While the management structure and name of the companies will remain the same, all employees — union and otherwise — will now be owners. With this plan, Danbert will continue to attract and retain knowledgeable, conscientious employees who are focused on safety, long-term growth, and pride in a job well done.
