Gaylord Construction  

About Us

Dean Gaylord had visions of owning his own business. Using money his wife Wanda had saved for a trip to Hawaii, the first backhoe was purchased and appropriately named Aloha.

Utilizing part time employees, Dean performed excavating and backhoe work in and around the Fort Madison, Iowa area. It wasn’t long before the local telephone company, Northwestern Bell began to notice the quality work, as well as the ethics within the company.

Building on the reputation his father had achieved, Sam Gaylord, the 2nd generation, envisioned becoming a motivating force in the industry. Today, Gaylord Construction has the means, manpower and experience to complete all aspects of rural and urban utility construction in any and all environments. We have personnel to install direct buried, underground and aerial fiber optic cable as well as inside plant applications. Our services include directional drilling, trenching, plowing, rock sawing and boring. With our employees, we offer an experienced team to custom fit any project and provide QUALITY work.
