Scott’s first Wick Building -January 1984

Genesis (The Beginning)

LaClef Construction is a third-generation post frame building company. It began in 1996 when a laid-off father of three (Scott LaClef) was approached by a friend and Wick area manager named Eldon Petersen. Scott had worked for Eldon and his son Terry off and on in the 1980s building Wick buildings. Eldon asked Scott if he wanted to start building Wick buildings as a sub-contractor. Scott agreed and started erecting buildings with a 4020 tractor with a post-hole digger on the back and a loader bucket with a makeshift boom attachment. Scott enlisted the help of his father and father-in-law and worked this way for a couple of years. Eventually, Scott was able to buy his first skid loader and hire a couple of full-time employees.

Zeb and Zane both helped their dad through their high school years and during summer breaks. Zeb went full time in 2005 and was married in 2007. He worked there and supported his growing family for nearly 13 years and built 100s of Wick buildings. Zeb worked in law enforcement for two years while still helping Scott part-time. He returned full time in 2014 and began working the contracting side of the business. In 2019, Zeb went on to start LaClef Construction, LLC as a way to expand its services to a larger customer base and help support the ever-growing LaClef family. Zane has helped Scott and Zeb for about eight years. During this time, he served five years in the Marine Corps and attained the rank of sergeant.
