Founded in 1951 by Roger Roodvoets and Elwin Kamminga with the support of John Roodvoets, KAMMINGA & ROODVOETS, INC. has evolved from a humble garage-based bulldozing operation to an industry leader in road building, site preparation, and underground utility construction. Based initially out of John Roodvoets' garage, their pioneering use of Caterpillar machinery laid the groundwork for what would become an extensive commercial enterprise spanning multiple decades. Headquartered with offices in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and Tampa, Florida, KAMMINGA & ROODVOETS expanded from residential construction to major infrastructure projects such as highway interchanges and expressway installations.
The 1950s marked the company's early growth phase, transitioning its focus from basement excavations to full-scale residential development. Their work in this era included subcontracting on significant projects like the US131 expressway and various county road constructions. Throughout the 1960s, strategic decisions such as corporatization and expansion into larger contracts underscored their evolution from contractor to prime construction firm.
By the 1970s, KAMMINGA & ROODVOETS had established itself in both residential/commercial development and infrastructure sectors while innovating with ventures like Laser Alignment and Kros Konveyors. Despite experiencing personal losses with the passing of its founders, the foresight of its leadership ensured sustained growth through succession planning.
Over the decades, foundational business ethics have remained pillars of company culture, emphasizing honesty, respect, equal opportunity employment, positive reinforcement, and competitive compensation programs. Today, under the leadership of officers such as Bradley Kreider (Vice President), Kurt Poll (President), and Marcus Tidey, Jr. (Vice President), KAMMINGA & ROODVOETS continues to prioritize safety, quality, and efficiency while maintaining a reputation as one of the premier construction firms in the industry.
Registered under the Florida Department of State with Company Type FORP, it was incorporated on May 04, 1981. The company's mailing address is 5219 Cone Road, Tampa, FL, with multiple contact numbers provided facilitating nationwide engagement.
