Company Description

Miller's Sons Contracting is "Striving to be the best wood framing and structural steel subcontractor you've ever worked with!" For many general contractors, developers, and trade partners, the company is doing well living this goal.

A large part of this is ensuring that our team lives our core values of Open and Honest, Team Player, and Hungry for Achievement. There are several market segments MSC serves: multifamily, commercial, custom steel fabrication/install, and what we call special projects (which have a lot of variation, from seismic retrofits and structural remodels, to radiused mass timber tenant improvements).

We don't do piece-workers. Everyone on the team is on the team. Our current average employee tenure of all employees (including our field team) is a little over 3.5 years, which is excellent considering the rapid growth the company has been experiencing!

A majority of our projects are within a 60 minute drive of our office, but we serve Oregon, Washington and Idaho. As the company continues to grow, so does the need for more good people who fit the core values and want to be part of a subcontracting company that strives to help its people, the GC's it works for, suppliers, and the other trade partners around us.
