The company is young.
The hands are not.

Where the work came from, and what this company has built since.

Before Essential Builders.

The company opened in Elmsford in 2020. Before that, our founder spent decades on New York City job sites. These are three of them.

American Copper Buildings

Two copper-clad towers on the East River, joined by a skybridge three hundred feet up. Completed 2017.

Walker Tower

Ralph Walker's art-deco tower in Chelsea, converted to residences.

Stella Tower

A former telephone exchange in Hell's Kitchen, restored and brought back as residences.

Interior work, as part of the crews on those jobs, before Essential Builders existed.

The Torrington build.

One project in Connecticut, filmed as it happened. Nine videos, start to finish.
