1926 to the present
Over 84 years ago, Charles Goldblum founded Stamford Wrecking Company. Recycling even in the 1920’s, we sold building supplies, plumbing supplies and lumber. The reusable lumber he sold to area builders, while scraps and wood unsuitable for construction was sold to bakeries to keep their ovens fired.
By starting small, gaining experience and public confidence, Stamford Wrecking received further name recognition in 1938 by obtaining the contract for the private residence and stable of Percy Rockefeller.
As each generation has learned the knowledge of the past, we continue to learn and enhance our high good will and solid reputation in this industry. We also continually strive to exceed the highest standards in the industry for innovation and safety.
These years have given us experience with all types of projects including residential, commercial, and industrial demolitions and implosions together with specialty structures including smoke stacks and towers, historical structures and tank removals. Since the 1980’s we have performed the remediation of soils, asbestos, hazardous materials, pesticides and oils together with substantial site services and new construction. Our Construction Services Division actively assists our customers with bridge construction and repairs, bulkhead installation, culverts, dams and other similar projects. The next generation looks forward to the future challenges of this industry.
