The Lamar Story

A family business with a national footprint.

Lamar was founded in 1982 in Luling, Louisiana — and four decades later, we still operate the way we started: with communication, transparency, and integrity at the foundation of every relationship.

Our crew is the same crew. Long-tenured employees, a deep bench of trusted subcontractors, and a leadership team that has never lost sight of the simple goal: send everyone home safe, finish what we promised, and do it on budget.

"We've separated ourselves in the industries we serve as a leader, innovator, and builder — through dedication, execution, and immediate response."
— Lamar Leadership
