SD Construction

Not every hire hits the same.
Some do the job.
Some raise the bar.
And every once in a while… you get a unicorn.
That’s been Jake Davies for us this past year.
What stands out most isn’t just what he’s accomplished, it’s how he shows up. When things needed support, he didn’t wait around for direction or a new title. He stepped in, helped where it mattered, brought clarity when things got messy, and kept things moving forward.
Now he’s not just supporting… he’s leading. Teams, projects, and big pieces of what we’ve got going on. And he does it the right way.

Integrity. Clear communication. Treats people right. Stays humble.

That kind of leadership goes a long way and makes everyone around him better.
And to keep things grounded… he knows how to have a little fun along the way too.
Grateful to have you on the team, Jake. Excited for what’s ahead.

Substantial completion in Cordova.
What started as barge schedules, material shipments, and a stack of drawings is now a finished six-plex ready to serve the community.
Building in remote Alaska demands planning, grit, and a crew that knows how to solve problems on the fly. Weather windows are tight, logistics are unforgiving, and there’s no room for shortcuts. This team showed up every day ready to figure it out and get it done right.
The building matters. The people who built it matter more.
Proud of this crew and the work they delivered.
This is why we build.

Every building we put in place changes a location forever.
It alters the skyline.
It reshapes how a community feels.
And over time, it becomes part of what the next generation grows up seeing as normal.
In a place like this, what we build doesn’t just sit on the land—it becomes part of the landscape.
That’s why we don’t just build for today’s needs. We build with tomorrow in mind.
The kids who will grow up here.
The families who will live, work, and build their lives around these structures.
The community that will inherit what we leave behind.
If we do it right, the building doesn’t compete with the place.
It belongs.
That’s building for generations.

We wrapped up a blue-tape walkthrough with the client on our Homer project, pretty standard stuff. Mark the punch list, come back the next day, and take care of the details.

When our crew showed up the following morning, they found more blue tape all over the jobsite… but this time, every piece had a handwritten note on it. Personal messages thanking the crew for their hard work, care, and professionalism.

That’s a pretty great way to start the day.

This is what we aim for at SD Construction, not just a job well done, but a project delivered on time with clients and stakeholders who feel good about the process and the people behind the work. Huge credit to our crew for earning this kind of feedback.

These notes meant a lot, and they’re definitely sticking with us.
