History

Machado & Sons Construction, Inc. was founded by Manuel Machado in 1985 and is now lead by his sons. Throughout the years, a focus on family values, continuous improvement, and forming solid relationships with clients has established Machado & Sons Construction as a respected contractor.

The company expanded its operations from the private and commercial arena in 2009 when it began providing services to the public utility industry. This expansion fueled the company’s growth as Machado & Sons set out to add new construction capabilities to its repertoire and increase its workforce in order to service new markets.

Machado & Sons pioneered large scale solar farm construction during the first wave of agriculture solar construction and has been on the forefront of other innovations in the industries they service. Growing demand in the company’s field operations has allowed them to build a talented team of professional staff in the administration, estimating, equipment and project management departments. This expansion paved the way for where the company is today, bidding an array of construction projects that complement their core competencies.

SAFETY

Protecting our people

Ensuring the safety of our employees, clients, communities, and the environment is at the core of everything we do. We never put production ahead of safety and we are continually enforcing and improving our safety programs and policies. From their first day on the job, employees are trained on our high standards for safety and they are held accountable for strictly adhering to the standards we have set. Our incident prevention programs include weekly tailgate meetings, JHAs, and an annual “All Hands” companywide safety training.

Injury and Illness Prevention Program

We take a proactive approach to finding and fixing work-related hazards before our employees are hurt.
