Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings
Urban Construction Company is proud to be Northern and Central Wisconsin’s trusted local Butler Builder®. As a long-standing partner of Butler Manufacturing™, we bring you custom metal building solutions backed by a brand known worldwide for quality and innovation.

In-House Building Design Services
At Urban Construction Company, we provide in-house building design services to support your project from the very beginning. Our experienced in-house design team offer practical, cost-effective building design solutions. If state-approved stamped plans are required, we collaborate with trusted licensed engineers to review and certify the designs, ensuring compliance with all local and state building codes.
Steel Fabrication
At Urban Construction Company, we offer in-house steel fabrication to give our clients greater flexibility and control during construction. Sometimes a metal building package doesn’t include everything you need, or the extras come with a hefty price tag. That’s where our fabrication team steps in. By handling custom steel work ourselves, we can create the components your project requires without breaking your budget, all while keeping quality and timelines in check.
Steel Erection
At Urban Construction Company, we provide in-house steel erection services, ensuring your project is in the hands of the best in Wisconsin.
