About Us

About Our Owners

What started as one man’s determination has led us through over fifty years of commitment to our neighbors, and fellow residents, and business owners. That man is Karl McDermed. Serving the Sandy, Welches, Zigzag, and all communities from Gresham to Mount Hood has been our mission since our company was founded in 1967. We are proud to say we are licensed and bonded and we’ve been providing quality service with high integrity from day one, and we’re still going strong.

When Karl’s daughter Michele started dating a fellow named Jay McKague in 1989, Karl hired him and began mentoring the young man. After 18 years working alongside Jay, Karl retired in 2007 and Jay naturally slipped into the role as owner and lead contractor at KLM. Now Jay and Michele co-own and run KLM Construction together.

We are proud to say we are licensed and bonded and we’ve been providing quality service with high integrity from day one, and we’re still going strong.

KLM Construction is a general contractor based in Sandy, OR serving Sandy, Mt. Hood, Welches, Zigzag, Brightwood, Gresham, Troutdale, Fairview, Clackamas, Happy Valley, Oregon City, Molalla, Colton and Beavercreek since 1967.
