Eric DeSimone – Founder & CEO, DeSimone Builders LLC

Eric DeSimone is a visionary leader, accomplished builder, and transformative force in the construction industry. With over 25 years of experience, he has founded and scaled multiple successful general contracting and construction management firms, collectively delivering over $2 billion in projects across commercial, retail, hospitality, healthcare, institutional, and ground-up developments.

Eric’s journey is one of relentless determination. Raised in a working-class Brooklyn home by immigrant parents, he learned early on that success isn’t given—it’s earned. His mother, a firm believer in education as a means of elevation, inspired him to push beyond limitations. They both earned their master’s degrees in the same year, a testament to the work ethic and perseverance that would define Eric’s career.

Throughout his career, Eric has led major industry players, including founding SavCon, which he grew into a $250M+ annual revenue powerhouse before launching DeSimone Builders LLC—his most ambitious venture yet.

A Disruptor in Construction

DeSimone Builders is built on efficiency, integrity, and a client-first approach that challenges outdated industry norms. Eric believes in extreme ownership and radical transparency—treating every client’s dollar as if it were his own and ensuring that trust, accountability, and results drive every project.

His leadership philosophy is guided by four core principles:

1. Have a Vision – Dream big, write down goals, and execute relentlessly. Success isn’t accidental—it’s intentional.
2. Be Responsible – Own your decisions. The system may challenge you, but excuses don’t build success—accountability does.
3. Care – Passion matters. Master your craft, push harder than the rest, and take pride in your work.
4. Bet on Yourself – The only sure investment is you. Outwork everyone, question everything, and never stop learning.

The Future of DeSimone Builders

Under Eric’s leadership, DeSimone Builders is positioned to scale rapidly, with a strategic foothold in New York City and South Florida. The firm bridges the gap between boutique contractors and large corporate players—offering the agility, responsiveness, and personalized service of a niche firm with the resources and execution capabilities of a larger enterprise.

Eric is not just building a company; he’s building a legacy. His vision for DeSimone Builders includes an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), ensuring that those who help build the firm’s success will one day own it.

Success isn’t a straight path, but with the right leadership, the right team, and the right vision, DeSimone Builders is set to become an industry leader.

The blueprint is set. The foundation is laid. Now, let’s build something GREAT.
