About Us

A Lifetime of Craftsmanship

Still headquartered in Moline more than 40 years after Peter McDermott started it, the construction company that bears his name continues to serve loyal customers throughout the Quad City Metro Area.

The last forty years have seen peaks and valleys for the Quad Cities construction industry, and more than a few builders have left the scene. McDermott Construction has survived and flourished thanks to Peter's ambitious work ethic and perseverance, his sense of fairness and, above all, the ongoing support of his loyal customers. Fostering trust through competent, customized service turned out to be a pretty good business plan!

We're honored to have been entrusted to translate so many dreams into reality. Browsing this site will give you an idea of the attention to detail evident in all our work, from stunning residential projects to impressive commercial complexes. Due to the current economic situation we're also seeing an uptick in additions and renovation of existing properties. We do it all!

The choice of contractor for your project shouldn't be taken lightly. Go with the pros for a job you can live with for years to come. Go with McDermott Construction! With McDermott Construction, the ''extras'' are not extras. Remember: ''We Pry Harder!''
