SAFETY
In a company that values its customers and team members like we do, keeping everyone safe on the job is a number one priority. Our dedicated safety team works closely with administrative and field personnel to ensure we go beyond the regs.
EQUIPMENT
The Lee construction fleet doesn’t come from a rental company. Because we own and maintain every piece of equipment on your job, from gantry systems to cranes and everything in between, you can count on reduced downtime, fewer service interruptions and lowered costs.
CULTURE
With a culture of everyday excellence and the pride of employee ownership, the Lee team brings a unique commitment to every project. A commitment empowered by our core values of excellence, enthusiasm and self-performance, laser-focused on exceeding your project’s demands.
BUILDING EXCELLENCE SINCE 1989
In 1989, Ed Lee, founder of Lee Industrial Contracting, envisioned a company that would link the best and the brightest people with proven project management strategies and the best equipment available to take on heavy industry projects in their entirety. Today, Lee customers know they can trust our hard-earned reputation for excellence on any project. Vision realized.
