Commentary
“Every construction project has some unique challenges, but what
impressed me about Diamond Construction was that they went above and
beyond what normal construction companies do to solve the challenges and
accomplish the end result of a great project for their client…..Dean, it
has been a real pleasure to work with you, Phil and Brett on the VBA Regional Office building. Your staff, from Phil and Brett all the way
down through the trades and the office staff helped to make my job much
easier. They were always pleasant, helpful and professional. You have
quite an organization and you should be proud of it!”

“Dean Bjerke and the staff of Diamond Construction, Inc. have totally
changed my perception of developers, general construction contractors
from my experience with several prior building projects for Boyd Andrew.
Diamond Construction, Inc. would be my contractor of choice for any of
our future projects in the State of Montana….I would rate Diamond
Construction, Inc. as the best contractor I have ever dealt with for all
areas of construction: integrity, quality, professionalism, verbal and
written communication, attention to detail, timely performance, budget
and cost control. Their goal and focus was to have Boyd Andrew as a life
long client, well beyond this single project.”
