Our Story

Leading Northeast Minnesota in professional concrete work—from the top of the Gunflint Trail to Grand Portage, and down MN-61 through Lutsen to Two Harbors.

Malachi Haugen Construction (MHC) was built on the belief that concrete work should be more than just strong—it should be smart, respectful, and done right the first time. What started as a family-rooted crew on the North Shore has grown into one of the region’s most trusted teams for high-quality concrete work. With decades of combined experience and certifications in ICF (Insulated Concrete Forms), OSHA safety standards, and ACI concrete practices, we bring a high level of professionalism and care to every job site.

What sets us apart is simple: we’re fast, clean, and committed to delivering excellent results. Our crew is renowned for being the fastest on the North Shore, while never compromising on quality. We leave every site better than we found it, with clean lines, clean finishes, and a clean workspace from start to finish. We’re proud of our reputation among builders, suppliers, and homeowners alike—not only for the work we do, but also for how we do it.

Just as important as our craftsmanship is our culture of respect. You won’t have to worry about politics, personal opinions, or anything unrelated to your project. Our focus is clear: complete the job, treat your space as if it were our own, and maintain mutual respect between our crew and every client. At MHC, it’s about quality work and good working relationships—every time.
