About Brad Lee Malmgren

Red-bearded Viking grinding 12-hour days as a Heavy Equipment Operator and Pipe Layer at Black Forest Paving in Riverton, UT. Currently tearing up old water lines and fire hydrants in Pleasant Grove streets — excavating, laying PVC/ductile iron at exact 48” cover / 56” invert depths, setting hydrants, backfilling, and restoring asphalt like it’s my own Gunnison ranch.25+ years running purebred Hereford cattle taught me how to lead crews, dominate equipment, and get the job done right no matter the mud, heat, or deadlines. Spent 15 years managing operations at Larry H. Miller and Morgan Jewelers plus 2 years at Doug Smith — built loyalty through grit, zero excuses, and results.Now I’m all-in on construction: safety-first, OSHA/PPE locked, skidsteer/paver/roller dominance, and zero callbacks. Looking to crush it year-round at Black Forest — if you need a reliable operator who shows up, hustles hard, and leaves every site better than he found it, let’s talk.#BlackForestPaving #WaterLineReplacement #HeavyEquipmentOperator #UtahConstruction #RanchToTrenchCell 80••••••77
