Mike M Johnston

Mike Johnston is a 2nd generation Mason Contractor. Johnston Construction Company, Inc. was incorporated in 1966, 56 years ago. Mike is one of few, if any, that holds a degree from the college of architecture at the University of Washington and a journeyman bricklayer card.

Mike began his involvement in local masonry industry and business organizations in the 1970’s. He immediately rose to a leadership position and served as President and Chief Wage Negotiator for the Tacoma/Pierce County Mason Constructors.

He later was elected a Trustee to the Washington State Conference of Mason Contractors and was instrumental in the development and creation of the Masonry Institute of Washington (MIW), eventually serving as its Chairman. Several years later Mike began getting involved at the national level with the MCAA attending conventions and educational programs. His invaluable experience and positive attitude has been a key to mentoring younger contractors and after having served as Regional Vice President for several terms (as did his father), he was elected President of the MCAA in 2000. During his tenure as President, he was involved in finance, conventions and the acquisition of the property that currently houses the MCAA office near Chicago.

Mike also served as President of the Associated Subcontractors of the State of Washington, Inc. from 1993 through 1994. Additionally, Mike was invaluable to the Washington delegation in the 50 year lifecycle debate regarding the MIL-CON project.

From building code regulations to high lift grouting processes in Washington State, Mike has assisted our industry and our association in becoming a leader in quality masonry construction.
