For 31 years, Jensen & Campbell performed work throughout Northwest Wisconsin and Northeast Minnesota, completing a wide variety of new construction and remodeling projects for commercial, public, and industrial clients. 1951 In 1951, the partnership between Jensen & Campbell ended with the formation of Campbell Lumber Co. and a new construction company formed by J. R. Jensen with his son, Keith H. Jensen, P.E. This company, known as J.R. Jensen & Son, Inc. was incorporated in 1959. During the next four decades, numerous public and private, commercial and industrial projects were constructed in the region under Keith’s direction, until his death in September, 2003. 1976 55 Years In Business 1977 Jeff Jensen Joined the Family Business Upon graduating with a Civil Engineering degree from Michigan Tech in 1975 Jeff worked for A.G.
