Cowen Construction, Inc. has been a pillar of the Oklahoma commercial construction industry for over 125 years.

Despite facing numerous economic shifts and technological changes over the years, Cowen Construction has remained committed to its core values: exceptional customer service and quality workmanship. The company's approach is simple yet effective, emphasizing the importance of rolling up sleeves to ensure that all project phases are completed diligently and correctly. Their motto, "We don’t want to be the biggest. We want to be the best," reflects their dedication to nurturing lasting relationships rather than merely increasing the volume of projects.
