It is the mission of McNamara Contracting, Inc. to be the infrastructure contractor of choice in the markets we serve. Our knowledgeable and professional team will assist our valuable customers from project design through project completion ensuring customer satisfaction.
McNamara Contracting is a third generation, locally owned family business. Throughout our 60-year history, we have continually adapted to meet our industry’s ever-changing specifications, technology advancements, and environmental requirements – and, most importantly, our customers’ needs. Our vertical integration model allows us to deliver projects on time and with a single point of contact, which makes us unique in our industry and local market:
- We mine, supply, and process the aggregates used in the asphalt and base materials.
- We self-perform the grading, base construction, concrete installation, utility installation, and asphalt paving.
- Our state-of-the-art, energy-efficient and environmentally friendly asphalt plant produces our asphalt mixes, surpassing project specifications.
We focus not just on meeting expectations but exceeding them. We are committed to providing a streamlined, positive experience for all project stakeholders.
Our Employees
We are proud to employ a diverse and dedicated team. In an industry with high turnover, many of our employees have been with us for years – or even decades. We have second-, third- and fourth-generation employees, with some employees in their 30th or 40th year. When people come to work for McNamara Contracting, they stay.
This is because we treat our employees differently. We give them input and respect their needs. We offer flexibility and give time off when needed. We’ve worked hard to create a diverse workforce that represents the communities we work in. And because of that, our employees stay with us – and so does their knowledge and experience.

Safety
The safety of our employees, customers, and the general public is the top priority in everything we do. We believe that a company’s safety record is the best indicator of integrity and dedication to its employees, which is why safety is our top priority.
We take a proactive approach to safety, working with OSHA and the Association of General Contractors to identify potential safety issues and improve our practices. We encourage employees to speak up with any safety concerns, and we address them immediately.
Our first and most important priority is making sure every employee goes home safely at the end of every day. We are continually changing our policies and adding additional training to ensure that we are as safe as possible.
Sustainability
Sustainability is built into our processes. Asphalt is 100% reusable. Every ton of asphalt and concrete that comes off our projects is crushed and processed for reuse. This significantly reduces the amount of limited natural resources needed when making asphalt mixes and aggregate bases. Our commitment to sustainability is both good for the environment and cost-effective for our customers.
We also act sustainably when operating our asphalt plant. When the mineral extraction is complete, we reclaim and restore the plant site, ensuring that it meets all environmental regulations for new use. The site is then turned into a new property, such as a school.
