History

With sons Joseph and Anthony actively involved in the corporation serving as Vice Presidents, surely the best is yet to come. The corporation is expanding on a daily basis, increasing client base, capital, experience and bonding capacity. Joseph DeVita Inc. believes in controlled growth, by still keeping a hands on approach to ensure an ultimate product. Being large enough to complete major projects, but small enough to maintain the direct contact between owner and clients is extremely important.  Joseph DeVita Inc currently has New Jersey State Qualifications for school construction of $15 Million & a Bonding Capacity of $20 Million.

Personally, Joseph A. DeVita has served on the Board of Tustees for both the Bricklayers and Cement Masons Union and also the International Laborers Union. Today he is still a trustee of the Bricklayers and Allied Crafts Union, Local 4, of New Jersey.

Currently located at 20 Madison Avenue in Paterson, New Jersey, we service nearly all parts of Northern New Jersey. Our commitment to excellence is unsurpassed in the construction field with a flawless bonding record. We look forward to providing you with the best service available.
