In 1984, I borrowed $800 to buy a pickup truck and started my masonry company focusing on residential projects such as basements and brick houses. I hired as many local workers as I could in our small community in southeastern Ohio.
We didn’t start out with the best equipment or safety gear, using 55-gallon drums for scaffolding and pine boards for scaffolding plank.
In the early days we had to make do with what we had, but the safety of our team was always a big concern for me. I knew them as my neighbors and friends, not just employees. Safety training and equipping the team with the best tools available quickly became a top priority in the company’s early years.
We held ourselves to very high standards. We were fortunate and worked hard, and the business quickly grew into one of the top masonry contracting businesses in the United States. Over time, the business shifted to focus more on commercial, industrial and institutional projects. As our company evolved and we began taking on more complex projects, we started to see unmet needs facing our workers—some of the equipment on the market wasn’t up to our standards, certain tasks were needlessly labor intensive, and we found ourselves increasingly working on tough jobs that involved working at heights.
