Wadman Corp.

V. Jay Wadman learned the construction business from his father Ben, who owned a small company during the Great Depression and through World War II. At that time, no job was too small and contracts where merely a handshake between two honest parties. “Honest Ben” as he became known, was more interested in doing a good job for his customers and making money was simply secondary.

That same principal was passed on to Jay Wadman when he started his own construction company in 1951 after completing a tour of duty in the United States Navy. He started his company working small remodel jobs, repair work, and a few small jobs for Hill Air Force Base, Utah.

In the decades that followed, the growth and success of the company was attributed to the high percentage of repeat customers that were loyal to V. Jay and his work ethic.

Just as Jay learned the construction business from his father, so too did his sons as they grew up around the business and then later worked for his company. In 1984, Jay’s son, David was named president of the Corporation and like his father, is adamant about building valued client relationships. “It is the foundation of our success. We excel at giving our valued clients the best in professional service and expert performance.”

In the 80’s Wadman Corporation covered the entire Intermountain Region and developed a very strong business presence in California. Even though the small remodel jobs remain a part of Wadman Corporation today, they eventually lead the way to larger projects for major national retail clients, resort developers, healthcare owners, large and small scale government projects, educational facilities, multi-unit and residential housing, travel centers, hotels, restaurants, churches, libraries, correctional facilities, educational facilities, financial facilities, grocery stores, and other projects reflecting our diverse background in various market sectors.

As Wadman Corporation continues under the leadership of David Wadman, operating philosophies remain the same as those of his father Jay and grandfather “Honest Ben”. The cornerstones of Wadman’s mission statement are “trust, honesty and commitment” – values that are recited on a daily basis and implemented by each employee.
