WHO WE ARE
Welcome To Construction Real Solutions
For us, construction isn’t just about precise work and tidy craftsmanship—it’s about you, the customer, and the community you live in.
We’ve handled a whole range of projects, so whether we’re renovating an elementary school, installing an elevator in a church, or building it all from scratch, we want to make sure our customers have a peace of mind, and a resource they can come to, every step of the way.
- Attitude: Positive, Competitive, Loyal
- Collaborate: Transparent, Teamwork
- Construct: Process, Leadership, Relationship
- Deliver: Successful Outcomes
WHO WE ARE
Collaborate To Succeed
It’s important to us that our employees and our clients feel like family.
We don’t have to play catch or have “the talk”, but we value above most anything else a shared sense of community between our company, our employees, and our clients. We want an enjoyable building experience for the people who work for us and the people we work for. You shouldn’t just feel, you should know that you can come to us with a question, a problem, or a solution, whenever you need to.
OUR WORK PROCESS
Process
How City Construction Works
It could be Iowa City, Cedar Rapids, somewhere out in Eastern Iowa, or beyond; we could be doing a small residential project, city beautification work, or a full-scale commercial remodeling job; but from the first time we meet you to the ribbon-cutting on the final day, we’re going to work for and with you, every day.
1
General Contract
From the first step, we’ll work with you to forge a contract and a relationship that’s fair, honest, and economical.
2
Project Planning
The best offense is a good defense, and the best cost-cutter is a good plan.
3
On-Site Work
Detail-oriented, attentive, expedient, and when the situation requires it, out of sight, and out of mind.

What We Offer
Services
City Construction Expertise
From working on award-winning university hospitals to renovating century-old elementary schools, City Construction has a combined experience of sixteen years in the Iowa City Community because we know what it takes to make a place look great.
New Construction
From Concept to Construction, we’ll help make your ground-up build a monumental effort built to last.
Additions
Just because you’re getting an addition doesn’t mean your whole life should stop. We make sure to work quickly, safely, and most importantly, easily, so that you can run your life while we run our machines.
Renovations
Renovations shouldn’t be a slapdash job. They should be detail-oriented, carried out with precision craftsmanship, and with a finish and trim that makes someone come in and say, “This looks great.” With us, that’s exactly what you’ll get.
Demolition
Sometimes construction isn’t just about how well you build something up—it’s about how well you knock something down. We’d like to think we do both pretty well.
Finish Carpentry
That finishing touch is a little detail, but it goes a long way in making a project look the best it can. We bring in quality carpenters with plenty of know-how and more than enough patience so that whatever gets made receives just that little, essential, final touch.
Design Build
After almost two decades of experience, we’ve learned how to work for and with you. We won’t just make your project a success or something beautiful—we’ll make it something you don’t have to worry about, ever, from the very start.
Working With Excellence
Construction & Engineering Real Solutions
Over the course of sixteen years, we’ve learned what works well, what doesn’t work well, how to see things before they happen, and adapt. There are always hiccups no matter what, but if we can head those off at the pass, that’s what our aim is, and that’s what we’ll do.
