Founded in 1956 by William Scala in Kenmore, Ohio, Kenmore Construction Company encapsulates a classic American success story. Starting from humble beginnings with just a pickup truck and small tools, Scala established a niche in small concrete projects around Akron. His unwavering work ethic, integrity, and attention to detail built a strong foundation for the company. Over the decades, Kenmore has expanded significantly, branching into various sectors such as heavy highway construction, wastewater treatment, and asphalt production.
Notably, the 1970s marked a significant growth phase with the establishment of the Highway Asphalt Company and American Sand and Gravel Company, solidifying Kenmore's place in the construction industry. After Scala's passing in 1985, his family, including his five children, took the helm, continuing the company’s legacy and expansion efforts. Kenmore Construction has since completed substantial projects, including the $80 million reconstruction of Interstate 76, showcasing their capability in managing large-scale jobs.
Today, Kenmore Construction stands as one of the largest and most versatile construction companies in Northeast Ohio, employing over 60 dedicated staff members and operating from a 50-acre headquarters. The company's values of safety, integrity, quality, craftsmanship, and community responsibility drive its operations, ensuring that they not only meet but exceed client expectations. As they continue to progress toward the next chapter of their story, Kenmore Construction remains committed to the same principles established by its founder: delivering quality results with integrity and fostering strong relationships within the community.
