Although Tricia Wilson and her husband, Brandon, didn’t expect to start their own business, they slowly moved from side-projects to creating Icon Structures. Tricia shares their journey of humble beginnings to statewide success with Don and Ebony.

Icon Structures, Inc. is a general contracting firm providing complete construction services to fit the needs of each individual client, large or small. From new construction to remodels and general building maintenance, Icon strives to build allegiance by exceeding expectations.

Over the years, many Wichita, Kansas building owners, property managers and architects have given Icon the chance to prove our expertise. Their positive experience on previous projects has led them to work with Icon time after time, structure after structure. 

Icon's ultimate goal is to raise the bar for integrity and quality in the local construction.
