History

Established in 1972.

Harry Watts moved to Kalamazoo from Sturgis in the 1950’s to try a new venture. After creating several partnerships in the construction industry he decided to create a business of his own in 1972 and he called it Watts Construction. Once Harry’s sons were old enough they each entered the business and upon his passing Don (the eldest son) took over the business. Don’s brothers each went their separate ways thus allowing Watts Construction to branch out in different areas. Don’s three children (Joy, Matt & Greg) each entered the business after college and run the business today making them third generation builders. Due to market conditions a new company was created called Watts Homes. Watts Homes handles the new home construction while Watts Construction builds the commercial/​light industrial projects.
