Diversification and the robust construction market in metro Milwaukee have continued to drive Lemberg’s growth, and company president and chief executive officer David Washebek is optimistic the trend will continue.
However, success is not without its challenges. Like many skilled trades companies, Lemberg faces the constant struggle of the labor shortage, both in the field and in the office.
