ABOUT US

MAC Construction is a multi-generational family business with over 50 years of excellence in commercial construction. Now led by the 3rd generation of McEnery family members, brothers Steve and Matt, we continue the legacy of our founders by building enduring projects and partnerships with clients.

Our diverse portfolio includes multi-unit retail, restaurants, offices, and industrial facilities across the region. With each project, MAC aims for exceptional results and a positive legacy impact for clients, engaged team members, and the neighboring community.

Our values, learned from our family's leadership, are embodied in the acronym C.R.E.S.T. : Customer Focus, Respect for People, Excellence in Execution, Safety, and Team Collaboration.

OUR VALUES

  • Customer Focus : We consistently deliver exceptional service by educating, collaborating, and engaging with our clients. Our goal is to make a positive impact beyond the construction site, building lasting relationships based on trust, integrity, and timeliness.
  • Respect for People : We treat everyone with kindness, compassion, and respect. We honor our heritage and operate with honesty and transparency, dedicated to investing in our team's growth and development.
  • Excellence in Execution : We strive for excellence in every project we undertake by committing ourselves to completing every project on time. We pay attention to detail, uphold high standards, and continuously seek improvement to ensure the highest quality outcomes.
  • Safety : We maintain safety in every aspect of our work, from conference rooms to construction sites. We take responsibility for our actions, overcome challenges with determination, and always prioritize safety.
  • Team Collaboration : We value teamwork and believe that collaboration leads to better results. We foster an inclusive environment where every team member's contribution is respected and valued, working together to achieve our common goals.

WHAT IT'S LIKE

Our culture is one rich in development and feedback, we believe our company is strong because our people are strong. We strive to set expectations and clear goals from day one, so our team can feel empowered to take ownership over their projects and their careers. It's important to MAC Construction that our team feels supported and is always looking for what they can bring to a project, not what they take away from it.
