“I fell into working with Agate from a friend in our company that had used them for one of his projects. He had first-hand knowledge of the difference in quality and service as he also used another contractor to do another project earlier that year. It was on his recommendation that we ultimately chose to have Agate do our dealership remodel. When dealing with Agate the first thing that hits you immediately is their attention to detail. We had a weekly meeting that kept everyone informed on the process, any obstacles or challenges, and exactly where we were according to schedule. The timeline was tight and trying to operate a business through construction is difficult. Agate knows this and worked around all our customer-facing projects on off hours, weekends, or with minimal interruption in service as possible. Now that our project is finished, I couldn’t be happier. Agate even kept a Forman on the job 6 weeks after completion just to take care of any odds and ends that we needed. Their customer service is incredible! As I reflect back on this project, I do not look at our remodel as a business relationship, rather a moment in time where I have met some lifelong friends. I would highly recommend Agate Construction for any commercial project you are entertaining. Their customer service, attention to detail, and care about the clients want and needs is refreshing in today’s day and age. Thank you, Dan, Jacob, Joe, Scott, and Lou Primak, for setting the bar really high, then surpassing it!” Shane M. O’Hanrahan, Chapman Automotive Group

“Agate completed construction of a plant for us in 2018 and when the need arose to expand and build another plant, I never had a second thought about who to call. The team at Agate is a professional group who is very organized, committed, and as professional as any company I have worked with. This will be my 3rd major project with Agate and all of them have gone exactly as planned and delivered on time with few issues. Lou and Rick run a great set of companies and are always available if the need arises to call them. They follow up after the project is completed to see if there are any issues that have risen and if there are, they always address them immediately and make sure you “the Customer” is 100 percent satisfied with the results. Use them with confidence, I know I sure do!”   Jay Donkersloot

“Agate’s team was able to quickly identify issues and provide engineered solutions, allowing construction schedules to stay on track. This commitment to overall project success and going above and beyond highlighted the difference between Agate companies and many of their competitors. Through their early and consistent commitment to the project, Agate played a large role in bringing this project to a successful completion resulting in a new and improved vehicle and mine service facilities for the owner. Through the process, their staff was always willing to jump in and help solve issues that were encountered, and did so with professionalism and a personal touch. Working with Agate on this project was a pleasure and we are looking forward to collaborating with them again in the future.” Kris VanLuchene, SE
