Martam Construction has been built on the hard work, integrity, and dedication of its founders, Tamas and Maria Kutrovatz.

Since its inception in 1973, Martam has grown from a family-owned operation to one of Illinois’ most trusted general contractors, recognized for its industry leadership and commitment to quality and safety.

Today, Martam’s leadership continues to reflect the values established by its founders, with a focus on innovative solutions, high standards, and personal accountability. As a second-generation family business, Martam Construction remains firmly rooted in its legacy while adapting to meet the needs of an evolving industry.

The Foundation of Martam’s Success

Martam Construction began as a vision shared by Tamas and Maria Kutrovatz in 1973. With a passion for quality and a commitment to excellence, they set the foundation for what would become a leading general contractor in the region. Over the years, Martam has built a reputation for delivering high-quality work across various sectors, including public infrastructure, private development, and municipal projects.

In 2005, the next generation of the Kutrovatz family leadership stepped in, continuing the family business with a strong focus on maintaining the same standards of excellence. Today, the company is led by Robert Kutrovatz, Dennis Kutrovatz, and Jerry Kutrovatz, who work together to ensure the continued success and growth of Martam Construction.
