Adam Zylka has taken a hands-on approach to the building of his business. Adam started working in the construction industry as a teenager. That’s where Adam fell in love with the business and craft of homebuilding and remodeling. Upon graduating from Dexter High School, he attended Michigan State University. While earning his Bachelor’s Degree in Construction Management, Adam helped pay his way through school working on a rough framing crew. Upon graduating, Adam began his career working with a number of Michigan builders as a crew foreman, site superintendent, and project manager.

When not at work Adam enjoys hunting, fly fishing, camping, coaching baseball and most of all spending time with his family.

As an eager teenager Drew was hired as a general laborer for a large framing contractor. Wanting more responsibility, Drew worked his way up through the company. By the time he was 20, Drew was a crew foreman. Drew and his crews worked on some of the largest residential developments in Southeast Michigan. His success came from his attention to detail and unparalleled work ethic.

As his goals were met as a crew foreman, Drew started his own construction business, DMC, Inc. He was now able to expand his skills with the flexibility and adaptability of his new smaller company. DMC worked on countless residential and commercial projects. Now as co-owner and Project Manager of Momentum Construction, Drew has successfully managed hundreds of projects, big and small. During his time off Drew enjoys being with his family. During the winter months you will often find him in Northern Michigan snowmobiling.
