About Behnkce Construction

Behncke Construction has been serving the Quad Cities area since 1948, providing foundation repair, basement waterproofing, masonry, and concrete services to homeowners and businesses in Davenport, Bettendorf, Rock Island, Moline, and the surrounding communities. With decades of experience behind us, we have built a reputation based on quality workmanship, honest recommendations, and long term results.

One of the biggest differences with our company is experience. In foundation repair and basement drainage, experience matters more than anything else. Many contractors can identify a crack or a problem, but the real skill is understanding why it happened and what solution will actually hold up over time. There are small nuances in this type of work that can only be learned through years in the field. These details make all the difference in whether a repair lasts or fails. Our team has some of the most experienced employees in the industry, and that experience shows in the results we deliver.

Over the years, our work has been recognized throughout the Quad Cities. We have received multiple awards from the Quad City Times and have been voted a Locals Love Us award winner eight years in a row. We are the only contractor to achieve that recognition across three different categories. We have also been selected by the State of Iowa as one of their preferred masonry contractors. In addition, we were honored by the Iowa Deaf Association as Employer of the Year for our efforts in training and employing members of the deaf community.

People often ask why we do not run television commercials or invest heavily in advertising. The answer is simple. We do not need to. Our work speaks for itself, and referrals continue to keep us busy year after year. By keeping our operation small and efficient, we are able to focus on quality instead of volume. This approach also allows us to invest more into our employees rather than spending large amounts on marketing. When you have well paid, experienced workers who take pride in their craft, the end result is better work and happier customers.

You may also notice that we do not actively ask for reviews. Because of that, you will often see newer companies with hundreds of reviews in a short period of time. Our reputation has been built the traditional way through consistent work and word of mouth over many years. We believe that says more than any advertising campaign ever could.

At the end of the day, we do not just see ourselves as a foundation repair or basement waterproofing company. We see ourselves as a company focused on making people happy. That means solving problems the right way, standing behind our work, and treating every home like it matters.
