Our Story

In 2018 DC Materials sold their first lumber package along with their labor. While other "turnkey" framers will partner with local lumber yards for materials, DC  buys at the wholesale and mill level.  The uniqueness of our business model in Wisconsin helped land us a spot on the Inc 5000 list being named 539th fastest growing company in America in 2022.

What sets us apart?

GMP Pricing

Veteran framers doing takeoffs for large projects means we can stand behind our count. When you get a price from us it's the guaranteed maximum price. We clearly outline in our proposals what's included and excluded. That paired with expert price risk management means you can lock in your pricing months ahead of time in a volatile lumber market.

Framer-owned expertise

Because we are a framer owned lumber yard we can offer unique insights and value propositions that a  lumberyard alone or labor only framing contractor can't. We can chose to spend more on sequencing or material substitutions to  optimize  labor netting a time and money savings for our costomers.

Schedule reliability

Controlling the flow of materials to the jobsite helps set our labor up for success. Our carpenters don't wait for material. Our labor first focus guide all of our decisions. Because of this we deliver projects 40% faster than our competition. On time, every time.

“I’ve partnered with DC Materials/Dynamic Construction them on several large multi-family projects, and they’ve consistently delivered outstanding results. They deliver high-quality materials and superior craftsmanship all while executing difficult projects on tight schedules – something that’s critical in our industry. From start to finish - pre-construction planning, material procurement (especially navigating through COVID material challenges and recent tariff concerns), design and MEP coordination, delivery, and field execution – they are instrumental to ensuring a successful project. I am always impressed by their vast knowledge of their trade, their problem-solving abilities, and just how easy they are to work with.
