BLS Construction, Inc. was established in 1982 by John Schmermund, with a vision to deliver high-quality commercial construction services to the local community and the Gulf Coast region. The company quickly gained a reputation for excellence, thanks to the combined expertise of John and his brother Frank Schmermund, who brought both business acumen and engineering knowledge into the operation. Within just five years of its inception, BLS Construction had successfully completed numerous projects, fostering long-term relationships with clients.
In 2005, William Key, son-in-law to John Schmermund, joined the family business, bringing with him fresh perspectives to the growing enterprise. In 2015, William, alongside his wife Britni Key, took ownership of the company and has since continued to expand its client base while nurturing existing relationships. The firm has seen significant growth in the quality, quantity, and scale of its commercial construction projects, reflecting the increasing demand for their services.
BLS Construction values community engagement and pays meticulous attention to detail during the construction process, ensuring a positive experience for clients and stakeholders alike. Their strong team of dedicated professionals, complemented by skilled and trusted subcontractors, enables the firm to maintain its presence throughout Southwestern Texas and further solidify its reputation for reliability and excellence in the construction industry. The company’s portfolio includes projects spanning various sectors, including financial, medical, liturgical, civic, and more, showcasing their versatility and commitment to quality construction.
