Building Crafts, Inc. An industry leader in the construction of water and wastewater treatment facilities. After construction is completed, a maintenance contract can be provided.

Since 1972, municipal and private clients throughout the north and southeastern US have relied on Building Crafts, Inc. (BCI) for cost-effective construction of water / wastewater treatment facilities. Our success is derived from a service philosophy of “we, not me.” We put the plant owner’s interest first, offering a refreshing level of cooperation and flexibility. That approach has earned BCI a loyal following of clients who have been with us for many years. From Design to Maintenance: Your Turnkey Source

We provide clients with a full range of treatment plant services, including design/build, construction and facility maintenance and repair. During design, all processes are value engineered to ensure that the best and most cost effective technologies are applied. Once construction is underway, communication and coordination are top priorities to minimize conflicts and disruptions to normal plant operations. Quick and affordable repairs and upgrades can be implemented at any time.

Last month, Building Crafts, Inc. proudly hosted company picnics across all three regions for the very first time. Our Kentucky team braved a rainy day, but the weather didn’t stop them from having a great time! At GPRO, we were excited to hold this year’s picnic at our new office, complete with a co****le tournament, a bounce house, and plenty of time to connect with employees and their families. And for the first time, our Texas region enjoyed a picnic of their own. Great food and camaraderie made it a true success!
We want to extend a big thank‑you to Marty for hosting the Kentucky picnic; to John and Lisa for attending and supporting GPRO’s event; and to Shane Paxton and Patricia Figueroa for organizing the Texas picnic. We appreciate everything you did to make these gatherings memorable.

Project Spotlight:
ROCSD Inman Elementary School Remodel – Red Oak, Iowa
BCI’s work at Inman Elementary School included Masonry, General Trades, and Doors and Hardware. The masonry work was completed by a subcontractor, while BCI’s workforce performed a small amount of demolition associated with an existing canopy.
BCI team members Jeff Reynolds, Axel McCuen, Austin Hale, and Joe Pogge completed the cabinetry and door installations. The crew also installed metal doors, frames, and hardware in both new and existing openings.
The project focused on creating a more secure school entrance while expanding and improving the office and administrative areas. Because BCI’s work was closely tied to the progress of other trades, our crew frequently worked in short phases, completing a day or two of work, often on weekends, before returning once the next area was ready.
As is often the case with school construction, the schedule became especially demanding during the final week before students returned. Close coordination between BCI’s workforce, subcontractors, and the other trades was critical to keeping the project moving and meeting the school’s deadline.
The project was completed in time for Inman Elementary School to open as scheduled, providing students, staff, and visitors with an improved and more secure entrance and administrative space.
A special thank you to Dave Timson, Project Manager; Jeff Reynolds and Axel McCuen, Superintendents; and our BCI crew for your quality workmanship, flexibility, teamwork, and dedication to getting the job done!

On August 4, 2026, we had the pleasure of hosting a cookout for the Water Pollution Control Improvement Project in Beatrice, NE. It was a great opportunity to gather with our crew, the engineer, and the owner and show our appreciation for the hard work being put into this important project.
This talented team is led by Superintendent Casey Sikes, Assistant Superintendent Braden Sikes, Project Manager Tony L***r, and Vice President Chad Nickolaisen. They are supported by Foremen Kelly Jacobsen and Kaden Grammer, along with Field Engineer Cooper Wilkening.
To each of you, thank you for your dedication, leadership, and commitment to BCI. Your hard work does not go unnoticed, and we are proud to have you representing our company on this project and many others. Keep up the great work!

Late July, we had the honor of celebrating the retirement of two incredible members of the BCI family, Mike Schoborg and Donnie Ellison!

Both Mike and Donnie have dedicated decades of their lives to BCI, beginning their journeys with the company back in the 1980s. Their hard work, leadership, knowledge, and commitment have made a lasting impact on our company and the people they have worked alongside throughout the years.

We are incredibly grateful for the many years they have given to BCI and for the legacy they leave behind. While we will certainly miss having them around, we are excited for them to begin this next chapter!

Congratulations on your retirement, Mike and Donnie!
Thank you for decades of dedication, leadership, and memories. We wish you both nothing but the very best in retirement!

**Project Spotlight**
Building Crafts is nearing completion on the Council Bluffs, Iowa - 6th Avenue Pump Station Scrubber project for the Owner, Council Bluffs Water Works. This project included major improvements to the existing pump station odor control system. Work included removal of the existing chemical storage, chemical feed equipment, feed tubing, odor control feed equipment, existing hatches, valve actuator components, and other items required to prepare the site for the new system.

Building Crafts completed the site and structural work needed to support the new odor control improvements, including concrete removal and replacement, foundation work, hatch and manhole modifications, access improvements, water service work, and related site restoration. The project also included installation support for the new two-stage odor control scrubber system, associated equipment pads, ductwork routing coordination, and modifications inside the existing pump station.
The project team includes Bill Hardy, Superintendent, Tony L***r, Project Manager, Chad Nickolisen, Vice President, Don Rodriguez, Team Leader and several talented field crew members whose hard work is appreciated. Thank you to everyone involved for your commitment and hard work!

We held a successful appreciation cookout at the Plattsmouth, Nebraska W2 WBS Pump Station. Although it was a hot day with little wind, we had a great turnout, serving approximately 40 attendees, including representatives from the City of Plattsmouth, Water Treatment Plant staff, Strand Associates, and Building Crafts.

We were also honored to have BCI Owner John Zalla, along with Project Managers John Ivan and David Zalla, join us while they were in town for project visits and training. Their participation made the event even more special.

We would like to thank the City and the Engineer for attending, for your kind words of appreciation, and for the strong relationships that have been built throughout this project. These partnerships have been instrumental to the project's success.

A special thank you goes to Chad Nickolisen, Vice President, Austin Bailey, Project Manager, Joe Sampson, Superintendent, Mark Holmgren, Estimator and the entire BCI crew for their hard work, dedication, and contributions to the project.

And, of course, a big thank you to Robert for firing up the grill and serving some great food for everyone to enjoy!
