Our Story
Bishop Beaudry Construction was founded and registered in 2006 as a Limited Liability Corporation by John W. Bishop, Jr. and Peter J. Beaudry. John and Peter had spent many years in the construction industry working for a number of large and mid-sized organizations. They worked on and supervised a wide range of projects including sports venues, high rise residential and office buildings, parking garages, historic preservations and warehousing. Although they enjoyed the challenges presented to them in their careers, they had the desire to establish their own firm where they could introduce processes and skills they had acquired over a combined 50 years of work in the field. Through direct engagement with their customer base and meaningful discussion with Owners, they have produced a record of customer satisfaction that is without equal.
BBC has found its niche in the construction industry in and around the Capital District of New York State. The firm has completed numerous projects, both public and private, and has established itself as an organization which will respond to customer requirements, complete projects on time and within budget, and always keep the Owners best interests in mind.

Philosophy of the Firm
“We measure our success by making each client’s construction experience positive, cost effective, professional and timely”
These are the words which guide our efforts through each project on which we work. They are not conceptual, but rather, a concrete statement of how we measure our success and the success of the overall project for which we have responsibility.
They drive our decisions to make certain that costs are controlled, time is used efficiently, professional conduct is unrivaled and both owner satisfaction and quality are maximized.
We understand that without satisfied customers we have not done our job. We place a premium on the level of satisfaction that we provide to our customers and understand that it is through a base of satisfied owners we will continue to grow our business.
When we commit to a project we are committed to the customer, their trust in us and the successful completion of the job. Nothing less will be accepted by the team at Bishop Beaudry Construction.
We want every owner, designer, supplier and contractor we work with to give us a positive reference when a project is completed. We have built our business on relationships and we understand that our continued success is inextricably linked to the satisfaction of all stakeholders that we deal with.
