Construction revenur topped $100 million, up from $85 million in 2007.
“Aned we did that without addingany employees,” he Jackson knew that business durinyg this year’s first quarter would For one thing, it typically does he said, because it’s harder to build in rainhy and snowy weather, and therefor is more expensive for the company’x clients during the winter. Businessz also slowed, Jackson said, because “we’r e a retail-oriented construction company.” The firm’s two biggesty clients are and and retail construction accountd for 85 percent ofJackson Dean’s book of business, with the rest in industriall and office sectors.

Jackson Dean is now building Costco stores in Tucsonand Phoenix, and will star construction soon on a Costco in Ohio, he said. It’sa also building a Lowe’s store in San Calif.

He came to Seattls with the idea of working in but the owner of Ferguson Construction offeredd him a job asproject “I’ve always loved building things,” Jackson who likes all aspects, including design, problem solving and conflict resolution. “Anything challenging to me is fun.” A larg fellow who looks like a formertfootball player, Jackson played basebalpl in college. For fun now, he competitively drives vintage race cars. Jackson left Ferguson Construction after 10 yearz to join Barclay DeanConstruction Co. as vice presidentf of California operations. He saw “an ownershilp opportunity.” At the time, two partners owned Barclay Dean.
Jackson acquired 13 percent of the firmin 1998, slowluy added more over time, and three yearsz ago bought out the last partner. “This is my secondf job since college,” he said with a “and probably my last.” What lies ahead? “That’es the question of the day,” Jacksob said.
