Ken Ester built Construct & Clear on a foundation of hard work, community, and doing things right — values that run deeper than the job site. A father of two, volunteer firefighter, licensed general contractor, welder, mechanic, CDL driver, and soon-to-be EMT, Ken is the definition of a jack of all trades.
Over five years building the business, Ken has completed over 200 projects across the Twin Cities Metro — from residential driveways and epoxy garage floors to large-scale commercial masonry restorations.
Ken believes in giving back. As a volunteer firefighter, he's already on call for the people around him. That same instinct — show up, do the hard thing, leave things better than you found them — is what drives every job Construct & Clear takes on.
When you hire Construct & Clear, you're hiring Ken. Not a subcontractor, not a stranger — the guy who answered your call.
Construct & Clear was built on a simple idea: show up on time, do the work right, and leave the site cleaner than you found it. That's been the standard from day one.
Based in St. Paul, we serve homeowners and commercial clients across the Twin Cities. From a stamped driveway in Maplewood to a full masonry restoration on a commercial building, we bring the same care to every job.
We don't subcontract. The crew you meet at the estimate is the crew that does the work — accountability from the first call to the final walk-through.
"Showed up on time, gave us a fair quote, and the driveway looks better than the day we moved in."
We stand behind every job. If something isn't right, we fix it — no excuses.
From sub-base prep to final seal coat, every detail matters. Quality is built in, not inspected in.
Clear quotes. Honest timelines. No surprise charges. You know what you're getting before we start.
We show up when we say we will. We finish when we say we will. Your schedule matters.
We live here. We work here. We take pride in every project because we drive past it after the job is done.
Cleanup is part of every job — not an add-on. We leave your property better than we found it.
"Showed up on time, gave us a fair quote, and the driveway looks better than the day we moved in."
"Used them for snow removal all winter — lot was always clear before 6am. Reliable and reasonably priced."
"The brick repair on our 1950s home looks seamless. They matched the mortar color perfectly."
Free on-site estimate — no obligation. Ken will come to you, assess the job, and give you a straight answer.
