Joseph E. Dupre, Sr. started the business in 1938 working mostly on residential projects. Joe, Bob & Pal continued what their Dad started and eventually Joe & Bob increased the areas of masonry work to include larger, commercial projects as well as the residential work. In 1999, with Joe Jr. running the company solely and ready to retire, his sons, Joe, III and Peter assumed ownership and have successfully run the business with other family members and employees that have worked for the company since 1972.
