Wilkie Construction

Wilkie Construction, a distinguished and dedicated construction company, has been serving the Hickory, NC metro area since 1959. Our company was founded on the belief in high standards, successful management, and a commitment to deliver quality workmanship. For over six decades, we have been building trusting and enduring relationships with our clients, based on integrity, performance, and quality.

Our History

Glenn A. Wilkie, our founder, established Wilkie Construction with a strong work ethic and a dedication to providing clients with the highest quality services. His very first job was repairing a garage door for $18, and from those humble beginnings, he launched a rock-solid construction company based on excellence. Glenn believed in providing clients with the highest quality services and an outstanding experience, gaining new customers while maintaining existing ones. This commitment to client satisfaction has been the cornerstone of our success.

In the 1970s, Wilkie Construction's second generation, Dean and Greg Wilkie, entered the company in management positions. With their introduction of modern construction techniques, company growth and market prominence progressed rapidly. Today, Wilkie Construction is in the capable hands of third-generation leader, Josh Wilkie, who serves as our vice president. His goal is to provide clients with the same high level of excellence and customer service that his grandfather and father built the company on.
