Our History
The story of C. Laney and Sons Construction begins with our founder, Charles "Chuck" Laney. As a successful local contractor, Charles raised his three sons, James, Frank, and Luke, with his wife, Rosemary. Each Laney son studied different subjects in college, from architecture to engineering, but ultimately found their common purpose in general contracting. In 1995, Charles' eldest son joined the business, and soon after, the whole family followed. Today, C. Laney and Sons Construction employs a workforce of fifty, including project managers, superintendents, and staff members.
