About Medows Construction

Medows Construction was built on a foundation of hard work, responsibility, and integrity that spans generations.

The Medows family legacy began with Denny Medows, who grew up in Southern Illinois in the early 1900s. After losing his father at a young age, Denny assumed responsibility for his family and their farm, learning early the value of discipline, perseverance, and accountability. Those values shaped his life and would later become the cornerstone of the Medows name. In the late 1920s, Denny moved to Chicago to pursue new opportunities, beginning a career that emphasized craftsmanship, honesty, and dedication. He and his wife, Flora, raised five sons, instilling in them the principles of integrity, faith, and strong work ethic.

One of those sons, Ken Medows, dedicated more than four decades to the construction industry. Working throughout the Chicagoland area, Ken gained deep experience as a general contractor and project manager, delivering a wide range of commercial and custom residential projects. He carried forward the values taught by his father and passed them on to the next generation. In 2009, Ken’s son Dennis Medows, alongside his wife Kristina, founded Medows Construction, Inc. Together, they built the company with a shared commitment to quality construction, disciplined execution, and giving back to the communities they serve.

Today, Medows Construction is led by Dennis and Kristina and supported by a dedicated team of professionals who continue to uphold the values that started over a century ago, delivering dependable results through experience, accountability, and care.
