Ratermann has busy year in 2020
This is one of the projects Ratermann Construction completed in 2020.
SIDNEY 2020 was a memorable year for Ratermann Construction Company (RCC), as it was for so many of their other community partners. RCC was fortunate to build multiple homes, several remodels and a few smaller projects throughout the course of the year. In spite of this uncertain time, in collaboration with other contractors and members of the community RCC was able to help construct the first COVIDtesting site at the Shelby County Fairgrounds. The comapny was fortunate to be a part of the Habitat for Humanity project in Sidney. RCC was also able to install a new steel roof on a home for a family in need. These types of projects are what makes living and working in the community so special.
