Established in 1884, W.G. Block Co. has grown from a distributor of coal and ice to a manufacturer of concrete, sand and fabricated steel products. As a closely held family business, W.G. Block Company has evolved from its early roots as one of Iowa’s largest distributors of coal to a well diversified company focused upon the manufacturing of natural aggregates, ready mix concrete and fabricated wire and steel products for the road construction marketplace.

At the core of every company comprising the Block family of companies are good people with a fundamental dedication to understanding our customer’s needs and providing them the best possible service and quality under demanding circumstances. We have grown up in the ready mix concrete business, and we understand that concrete does not wait for anything or any problem. It is this basic understanding of the demands placed upon a concrete contractor that is the biggest and single most significant element that separates us from our competition. Whether that contractor is placing concrete for a sidewalk or an eight lane interstate highway, we know the demands of concrete.

We have built our success in our businesses on our ability to become an integral part of our customer’s day to day business. Our service, in every one of our companies, can make or break a project. Great service means delivering exactly what you promise, when you promise it and with a quality product. As a result, we pride ourselves on our attention to the customer’s needs and our ability to create individualized products and services for any single customer. We do the job right the first time, because we know that there are generally are no second chances. That is why we say that we deliver more then just concrete, sand and steel. We deliver results. Whether it's answers to your technical questions, seminars for your employees, high quality problem free products or honest answers to what we can do and when we can do it. The greatest values we bring to our customers are that we are “Easy to do business with.”
