Hartz Contracting/SMD
Owensboro, Kentucky

For over three decades, Hartz Construction Corporation earned a reputation as the premier contractor in the region, known for its excellence in commercial, medical, religious, institutional, and industrial construction. That proud legacy continued in 2012 with the formation of Hartz Contracting, a division of The Murphy Construction Group.

This transition retained the same trusted professional staff, supervisors, and skilled craftsmen. The company’s capabilities were further strengthened through the added management depth and professional expertise of Scott, Murphy & Daniel, LLC and Scott & Murphy, Inc., ensuring continuity of quality and service while positioning Hartz for continued growth and innovation.

In recognition of its strong performance and community engagement, Hartz Contracting was honored as Business of the Year in 2016 by the Owensboro Chamber of Commerce, marking a successful first four years in the next generation of the Hartz tradition.

Today, Hartz Contracting is a key player in the design/build and civil/concrete construction markets in the Owensboro region, continuing its long-standing heritage of excellence while contributing to the area’s development and progress.
