OUR HISTORY
Ground Zero Construction was founded in 2004 by Rod & Jamie Garman. Having always been fascinated with heavy equipment, Rod spent 8 years working and learning everything he could about the excavation business before starting Ground Zero Construction. Starting from the bottom, hence the name “Ground Zero”, Rod & Jamie built the business to what it is today through 18-hour days and leaning on their faith in God. While building the business Rod & Jamie raised two boys, Ethan & Emmit. Ethan now owns a trucking company and Emmit is our Vice President, while both of their wives work for GZC truly making us a family business. Today, GZC has over 100 employees and a fleet of 50 pieces of top-of-the-line equipment.
COMPANY VALUES
The foundation of Ground Zero Construction is in our faith in God. We conduct business in the way He has commanded us to live, by treating others the way we want to be treated. Having God as our foundation has allowed us to build relationships and friendships throughout the years. Through Gods’ grace we have made it through the tough times. We have seen Gods’ favor in our company and will continue to lean on Him through any obstacle we may face.
WHAT SETS US APART
Ground Zero Construction is fast-paced and efficient. We understand as an owner or developer that you are paying interest on your project and the longer it takes to finish, the more you’ll pay. We have invested in the best equipment equipped with the best technology to ensure the most efficient methods possible to complete the project in a timely manner. With nice equipment comes experienced operators that want to work in the best environment. All of this factors into a project getting done quicker than our competitors and saving the owner/developer time and money.
Another example of what sets us apart is that ownership is directly involved in every aspect of the business. Whether we have a problem in the field or in the office, employees have the confidence to come to ownership to know that the problem will get handled quickly.
Here at Ground Zero Construction, we see each employee as family. The care and dedication we put into our employees not only sets us apart from our competitors, but any company for that matter.
