Where We Came From

AmeriTech Contracting was founded as AmeriTech Mechanical by Scott Dahl in 2020. As a service-disabled veteran, Scott was driven to build a company that could make a meaningful difference in the lives of his clients and partners. He took on every challenge that came his way with determination and passion. With his commitment to providing opportunities for other veterans and creating a workplace culture that values diversity, inclusivity, and excellence, Scott motivated those around him, and his dedication to his work and community is truly commendable.

Today, AmeriTech is proud to be a leading provider of services, delivering quality solutions to clients across the country. Led by industry expert Andrew (Drew) DiSilvestro, who worked with Scott in the beginning, the company continues his unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction, support of veterans, and relentless focus on innovation and growth.

Clients choose AmeriTech again and again because of the value and consistency they receive. Everything we do is customer focused, high quality, and integrity driven. Scott Dahl’s story is an inspiration to all who dream of creating their own success, and his legacy serves as a testament to the power of perseverance and hard work. Thanks to his leadership and dedication, AmeriTech Contracting is proof that anything is possible with passion, dedication, and a willingness to take risks.
