Since 1974 Bob and Bill have been friends and true partners in forming,

growing and maintaining Phoenix Bay State Construction Co., Inc. Phoenix is one

of the largest union masonry contractors in all of New England and has been

operating from the same location since its formation. Bob and Bill started out

working in the field side by side with some of the same people currently employed

by the company. They have built the company from the ground up to what it is today.

Bob and Bill are involved in every aspect of the company operations. They interact

with clients, architects, consultants and engineers; they assist with the estimating,

pricing and bid process; they oversee projects to ensure the work product is of the

highest quality and is completed timely and they continually guide the business in

growth and stability.

No project is too big or too small to keep our clients satisfied. Phoenix

has been trusted to handle large complicated restoration projects such as the Gasson

Hall Tower renovation at Boston College and the Massachusetts Institute of

Technology Dome renovation to a simply beautiful staircase renovation at

Emmanuel College. Our new building experience has allowed us to build

Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s new Cancer Research Building, Emmanuel

College’s Science Building, Winchester Hospitals’ new Ambulatory Building and the

Mandarin Oriental’s Boston Hotel.

Bob and Bill have been dedicated to each other and this company since

1974. Phoenix is proud to provide the same top quality for every job big or small.

Bob and Bill have promoted a safe working environment for all Phoenix employees

and the company has gone years at a time with no on the job injuries. Safety is not

optional, it is a priority. Phoenix has used hard work and dedication to remain one of

the top masonry contractors in the region. Bob and Bill are just as dedicated to the

employees of Phoenix and strive to know each one from top to bottom. They make

sure Phoenix as a whole is thriving, learning and growing. Bob, Bill and the entire

Phoenix family are dedicated to our clients in every way. Phoenix strives to exceed

your expectations and be here for your needs from concept to completion.
