Our Story

It began in 1967, when Erwin Geis launched a small construction business in Macedonia, Ohio. With a compelling combination of innovation and work ethic, the company found immediate success — an upward trajectory that continued when son’s Fred and Greg joined Geis Companies.

Today, The company continues to grow into a major force, focusing on exceptional execution of complicated projects. Our company has become a multi-million dollar development and construction business, with more than 150 skilled professional staff.
