Partner Testimonials
The I-49 McDonald County project would not have been as successful without the partnering efforts of ESS and the other involved parties. MoDOT is extremely proud of this project.
MoDOT SW District Engineer, MoDOT
Since we began working with ESS in 1999, they have remained a key partner of GaleHart Communities. Emery Sapp consistently provides excellent communication, flexibility, transparency, and completes construction on time — just a few reasons why we look forward to continuing our relationship with them for years to come.
Development Manager, Gale Communities
One of the reasons we’ve teamed up with ESS is the employee-ownership ties. We enjoy working with other firms that share the same values, and can connect with us from a cultural standpoint. ESS is very innovative, and I can tell you guys care a lot.
