From high-altitude pipelines to community roads, Gould Construction relies on Cat® soil compactors, and their partnership with Cat dealer Wagner Equipment Co., to deliver high-quality work in some of Colorado’s most challenging terrain. Rocky, uneven soil packed with glacial debris, remote slopes where weather changes by the hour, and elevations push machines and crews alike to their limits.
Gould Construction is building more than roads, roundabouts and bridges. It’s building a community. As a third-generation family business based in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, the company has earned a reputation for taking on some of the toughest projects in the Rocky Mountains. That reputation is built on experience, strong partnerships and a commitment to getting the job done right.
For Gould, Cat soil compactors play a critical role in delivering consistent, high-quality results, especially in unpredictable mountain soil conditions. Because when you’re working at 10,000 feet, everything counts and shortcuts are not an option.
The team is known for tackling complex, remote and high-stakes projects, from helicopter-supported pipeline work in the White River National Forest to the Ziegler Reservoir dig that unearthed thousands of Ice Age fossils.
Mountain construction is unpredictable by nature. Unstable or varied soil, extreme elevations, and sub-zero temperatures all make it difficult to maintain efficiency and quality on a job site.
“Construction in Colorado is a different animal,” says President and CEO Mark Gould Jr. “The different soil conditions really impact how we’re able to bill the job. Then of course altitude affects the performance of the machines, and with altitude comes cold temperatures.”
That’s why Gould doesn’t leave quality to chance. In this environment, you need equipment that shows up ready to perform, no matter the terrain or temperature. For Gould, meeting these challenges isn’t just about having experience. It’s about having the right tools, backed by trusted support, to adapt quickly and get it right.
In mountain construction, compaction is more than a step — it’s everything. It is the foundation of every road, pipeline and structure above it. And for Gould Construction, there’s only one brand that consistently makes the grade: Caterpillar.
That’s why Mark Gould chooses Cat soil compactors. Not just for their durability, but for their spot-on compaction measurement technology that’s simple to use and essential in variable soil conditions. These machines are time-tested workhorses that won’t let you down, even at high altitude.
Backed by Cat dealer Wagner Equipment, Gould has access to the machines, service and support they need, often on short notice.
“I believe the top three things Gould Construction expects from us are quality machines when they need them, getting a large machine from our inventory quickly, and reliable service and support,” says Brian Shaver, earthmoving machinery sales customer representative at Wagner.
Gould’s compactors don’t sit idle. They are out working steep grades, tight deadlines and frozen ground, proving every day that building to last means never cutting corners.
“I’ve been running a dozer for about 45 years,” says operator Toby Good. “And I prefer Caterpillar over any other brand.”
For a family-owned business built on trust and long-standing relationships, the partnership with Wagner and Caterpillar is not just about performance: It’s about shared values.
“We really consider both Wagner and Caterpillar a partner in our business,” Mark Gould Jr. says. “They seem to have the same values as our family business, and that makes all the difference when you’re trying to do things the right way.”
