Timco Receives LEED Certification
March 6, 2009

Timco Construction recently received their LEED certification through the hard work and dedication of their Senior Construction Engineer, Adam Bomstad. LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is a green building rating system developed by the United States Green Building Council, which sets standards for the environmentally sustainable construction industry. The LEED certification was created back in 1994 to accomplish the following objectives: to promote whole-building design practices; to recognize leadership in the environmental building industry; to define “green building” by establishing a standard measurement; to stimulate the green competition throughout the market; to raise the awareness of the benefits of green building; and to transform the building market into a sustainable industry.

Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)

Timco, a premier medical contractor in the health care industry, has taken a huge step forward in the construction industry by receiving this accreditation, setting them apart from most of the general contractors across the Midwest. Timco also holds the ASHE (American Society for Healthcare Engineering) Certification. Timco’s great strides in the medical industry has only strengthened their ability to exceed their clients expectations in healthcare construction.

Adam Bomstad, LEED A.P., holds a B.S. degree in Construction Management with a minor in Business Administration and has the neccessary skills to succeed with Timco in developing and managing high-quality projects for a number of hospitals and clinics around the Twin Cities. Together with many skilled and highly trained professionals in the field of healthcare construction, Timco has grown significantly over the past 50 years. Established in 1957, Timco was founded by Thomas E. McKee as a general contractor for both residential and commercial projects. In 1982, Timco was taken over by the current President and CEO; Timothy E. McKee, who now focuses almost exclusively in the healthcare industry, providing the market with strategic construction solutions for medical projects across Minnesota.

Timco Construction, together with BDH & Young, Davis Real Estate Services, IRET Properties and Gilbert Mechanical, hosted a party on Tuesday, October 7, 2008, to celebrate the grand opening of the new Midtown Medical Building in Minneapolis

The building offers a state-of-the-art heating and cooling systems installed to keep each room at a monitored level while providing energy-efficient air exchange and filtering systems. The construction team preformed well to complete this project on time and under budget, while exceeding the customer’s expectations.

The successful completion of this project significantly improved the Midtown block. One of the buildings new tenants is Noran Neurological Clinic & Minnesota Diagnostic Center. Each one of the clinic's spaces was strategically designed for the comfort of the patients and the functionality of the staff

  • “I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for all the fine efforts of everyone at Timco on our recent office replacement project. There are not many projects lasting four to five months that are completed on time, on budget and with such high degree of quality as your work. I want to specifically mention Todd Zwack. Without Todd's attention to detail and calm approach to any obstacle we encountered, no matter how large, the results and our satisfaction would be greatly different.”
