Curran Contracting Company
Overview
About Curran Contracting Company
Curran Contracting Company is a site development and asphalt paving contractor serving the north, northwest and west suburbs of Chicago. The business traces its origins to 1918, when William Curran opened Metropolitan Coal & Ice, and it shifted into asphalt work in 1936. Four generations of the Curran family have owned the company, and a fifth generation is now joining it. Acquisitions have expanded its reach over the years, most recently with Schuepfer Inc. joining the company in 2025.
Curran self-performs most of its scope. Its crews handle land clearing, trenching, mass grading, soil stabilization, erosion control and site preparation, foundation and detailed excavation, site remediation, stone backfill and aggregate placement. Paving work includes asphalt paving and offsite roadway construction, and the company crushes and recycles asphalt. It also offers site balancing and value engineering, and an underground utilities division installs storm sewer and drainage infrastructure.
The company works in commercial, industrial, residential, healthcare and public sector markets, and recent projects reflect that range. As general contractor on a $16.9 million IDOT overlay of US Route 12, Curran is resurfacing 6.5 miles through Fox Lake, Volo, Lakemoor, Wauconda and Mundelein and adding shoulders with rumble strips. Its underground utilities division replaced culverts and drainage on the IDOT Winn Road resurfacing project. For Lennar, Curran has graded and stabilized soil for residential developments including Fox Haven in West Dundee, Abbey Meadows in Aurora and the 80-acre Walnut Hollow, where crews shifted upward of 252,000 cubic yards, built walking paths and excavated detention areas.
Industrial and commercial work includes the building pad for an industrial building of 428,900 square feet at Algonquin Corporate Center with Peak Construction, site development for a Life Time Fitness in Naperville with Power Construction, and access roads for a solar farm in Woodstock built with Pepper Construction. The project list also includes a data center in DeKalb and the I-39/US 20 interchange in Rockford, and Curran worked with Mortenson Construction on the Mercy Hospital project in Rockford.
