“I wholeheartedly recommend Christner Contracting based on our two-year experience working together on the SE Iowa Sports Center project. They served as project manager with exceptional professionalism and commitment—contracting and vetting all subcontractors, communicating clearly with our board, and responding promptly to every inquiry. Their handling of change orders was especially strong, always providing the information we needed to make informed decisions. Christner also showed a genuine commitment to community involvement, which aligned with our values as a nonprofit. Their expertise, responsiveness, and dedication made a lasting impact, and I fully recommend them for any future project.”

Stories of success from our valued clients.

    “Once again, you and your crew came to our rescue! We can’t thank you enough for always going above and beyond. It meant so much when the fans arrived at Whitey’s during our unexpected flood. Your kindness and generosity were unbelievable.

    We’d still be knee-deep in mud without those fans. We truly appreciated you pulling workers from another project to help us—they were so helpful and kind. Just like you, they went above and beyond, even carrying the fans to the basement and tracking down extension cords. Please thank them for us, and know how grateful we are for all the support you continue to give.”
