Knutson General Contracting LLC was started in 2018, founded by Michael Knutson after the passing of his father, Chris Knutson, who owned Knutson Construction.
Michael worked under his dad for years, learning the trade end-to-end before forming his own company to carry it forward. Today, Knutson General Contracting is a full-service general contractor specializing in wood framing, steel framing, foundations, and concrete grinding and polishing — and we keep growing.
As a GC, we serve every need of our clients. The scopes we do not self-perform are electrical, plumbing, and HVAC — we coordinate trusted licensed subcontractors for those.
Our team is built from the ground up, trained in-house, and held to a high level of accountability. Every crew member is expected to take ownership of their work and deliver results that meet our standard. That's how we maintain control in the field — and why our projects perform the way they do.
