Zurbrugg Construction Co

Zurbrugg Construction Co is a construction company in Hillsboro, Oregon. Founded by Gene Zurbrugg in 1971, the firm is family owned and now in its second generation, with his sons Chris and Gene continuing to lead operations alongside a team that includes Lori, Tim, Ethan, and Travis. The company focuses on light commercial construction and development, serving Washington County for nearly five decades. Its work covers commercial project types handled in-house, giving the company direct control over cost, scheduling, and resource use rather than outsourcing major aspects of the build. Long-standing relationships with local subcontractors and suppliers are a central part of how the company operates, with each partner chosen for consistently reliable work.

The company traces its roots to Gene Zurbrugg taking up carpentry in his early twenties before launching his own family-run firm in 1971. Guiding principles of loving the work, a strong work ethic, putting customers first, and giving back to the community have shaped the business over the years. The firm has been recognized locally, having been voted Hillsboro's best local construction company in 2019. Community involvement remains a defining trait, with Gene Zurbrugg serving on the Pacific University Board, the Tuality Healthcare Board, and the Washington County Business Council Board, as well as participating in the Hillsboro Chamber, the Tuality Foundation Board as Fundraising Chairman of the scholarship committee, the Rotary Club, the Hillsboro Downtown Business Association, and the Hillsboro Youth Peer Court. He has also served on various bank boards. Business hours run from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.

The office sits on SE Washington Street in downtown Hillsboro, about 0.1 miles from Southeast Baseline Street and a short walk from the Hillsboro Central/Southeast 3rd Avenue Transit Center, Bag & Baggage theater, and the surrounding Downtown Hillsboro neighborhood.

With close to fifty years of continuous operation and a second generation now leading the company, Zurbrugg Construction Co remains one of the longest-running family-owned builders serving the Hillsboro and Washington County commercial market.
