Branson general contractor purchased by firm executive

Posted online

A Branson-based general contracting company was purchased by an investor group led by an executive at the firm.

Steve White said this morning the acquisition of Lifestyle Contractors LLC was completed Oct. 1. The company is in the midst of a rebranding to Granite Construction Group LLC.

White, who was president of construction at Lifestyle Contractors and will be president of Granite Construction Group, would not disclose names of the other investors but noted they were from outside of the company. Purchase terms of the deal and the names of the management team for the new firm were also withheld.

Lifestyle Contractors was founded in 2012 by Steve Redford and for the past decade has experienced substantial growth, according to a news release, with over $75 million in annual construction volume.

Current projects for the firm include the $85 million Tall Timbers Camp development in Hollister, Kimberling Crossing Condominium in Kimberling City, a Sherwin-Williams paint store in Branson and Niangua Commons in Lake of the Ozarks.

White said Granite Construction Group’s current service area is 50 miles surrounding Branson, mirroring Lifestyle Contractors, but said he is open to expansion. According to the news release, Granite Construction Group will seek more commercial and government work in addition to maintaining its volume of business in the residential and nightly-rental sector.

White, who has spent his entire career in construction, has 25 years of experience in project management, estimating and cost analysis. He’s worked as president of construction for Lifestyle Contractors for two years and said the opportunity for the negotiated purchase felt like a natural next step.

Granite Construction Group has an office at 125 Warehouse Drive, Ste. B in Branson.
