About Us

Founded in 1945, Ruscilli has grown from a small trade contractor to one of the largest full-service construction firms in the Midwestern United States.

Ruscilli Construction Co., LLC originated as a specialty contractor and has since evolved into a full-service organization offering in-house preconstruction, program management, construction management, design/build, general contracting, trades contracting, and construction consultation services. These services are supported with state-of-the-science estimating, value engineering, scheduling, and electronic systems technology.

The firm was organized in 1945 by Louis G. Ruscilli, Jr., who was shortly joined in the company by his father, Louis Ruscilli, Sr. The firm was incorporated in Ohio in 1959. L. Jack Ruscilli, the firm’s Chairman, and Robert A. Ruscilli introduced the company and its clients to the design/build concept of construction in 1967. As a result, Ruscilli Construction has grown from a small trade contractor to one of the largest full-service construction firms in the Midwestern United States.

During the 1980’s, our firm experienced dramatic growth while serving the institutional, K-12, and higher education markets. In response to the rapid momentum, and wanting to ensure a continued focus on core principles, company leaders drafted a process known as The Ruscilli Way. To this day, The Ruscilli Way continues to be the doctrine that governs our company. Displayed on every job site, the doctrine is a visual reminder of the characteristics expected of all our associates.

Today, Ruscilli is a total building resource offering unparalleled service and value serving a wide variety of markets including commercial office buildings, industrial manufacturing complexes, public/private school facilities, retail space, recreation applications,
and market rate and senior housing complexes.

Now in its 5th generation and 79th year of family leadership, the company continues to flourish under the guidance of Robert (Tony) A. Ruscilli, Jr. and Louis V. Ruscilli. Under their direction, Ruscilli Construction continues to build upon its foundation of repeat clients with unparalleled client satisfaction.

As of 2021, Ruscilli has transitioned to an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). The shift to employee ownership will provide additional growth opportunities for the company and our associates, as well as position the company for continued success in the future.
