Our History
Our history begins with Rod Beukelman, founder of Beukelman Construction in Sioux Center, Iowa. Rod's journey in construction began alongside his father, a builder who crafted both banks and homes in Minnesota. Together, they shared a passion for manual craftsmanship and a keen eye for creative design. In 1978, Rod made the move to Sioux Center, where he laid the foundation for Beukelman Construction. He integrated his expert craftsmanship into countless homes within the community, establishing a reputation for quality and reliability that continues to define the company today. Following his father's footsteps, Rod's son, Dan, also learned the skills of the trade. By growing up around the job site, Dan developed an appreciation for the craft.
Dan earned a Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design from Iowa State University, but Dan's heart has always been drawn to building. While his education provided valuable skills in creativity, visualization, and design, it was the knowledge gained from years of on-site work that shaped his experience. In 2011, Dan officially joined the family business. Together, Rod and Dan collaborated in designing and constructing projects that left a lasting impact on their clients and community. Beukelman Construction has since grown with the help of dedicated employees who share their same passion and vision, and a commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction.
In 2024, Dan assumed full ownership of the business, carrying forward the legacy his father had built over the decades. Driven by a passion for both design and construction, Dan continues to push the boundaries of the industry. With a blend of tradition and innovation, Dan continues to lead the company, transforming spaces that not only fulfill practical needs, but also support homeowners as they navigate through life's journeys.
