Meet the Founder

Brad Christophersen

At an early age I was always interested in building things with my hands. I built everything from backyard treehouses to BMX ramps which eventually translated into spending my summer breaks during high school working construction and learning the trades.

After high school, I went into construction full time with a strong desire to learn from the most experienced craftsmen I could find, which is what led me to commercial construction. Since then, I’ve worked as a Tradesman, Carpenter Foreman, a Superintendent, and a Project Manager. All of which gave me a wealth of knowledge and a well-rounded perspective of how to build something from the ground up.

In March of 2022, Standard Commercial Construction was born out of my desire to establish a standalone, professional company to collaborate with other building professionals to construct high-quality, long-standing structures that serve our community. 

I enjoy establishing lasting connections with people, whether that’s with the staff here at SCC or with General Contractors. Overcoming challenges and collaborating with others, working as a team to find the most suitable solution and executing that plan successfully is incredibly rewarding. I believe building solid relationships based on respect and performance is what drives our industry forward.

I’m so proud of what we’re able to accomplish as a team. Bringing our specialized skills to the jobsite and being part of building structures on such a large scale, working with an incredibly talented group of people, who value honesty and hard work just as much as I do, it’s a privilege.
