Filipe Monteiro of Connecticut has become an expert in the field
of masonry. Originally from Portugal, he moved to the United States in his
early twenties. After a string on odd jobs, Monteiro dedicated himself to the
craft of building and masonry. Today, he is the owner of Monteiro’s Masonry
Construction.
“The
Masonry industry provides services such as stone setting, bricklaying,
brick-to-glass block laying and exterior marble, granite and slate work.”
Although the masonry industry struggled during the recession, a strong recovery
in residential and commercial building is expected. Monteiro has a slice of the
24-billion-dollar industry, servicing clients in the tristate area through
Monteiro’s Masonry Construction.
The masonry industry is decentralized, offering a lot of
opportunities for independent owners like Monteiro. “The Masonry industry has an extremely low concentration of
ownership, with the four largest contractors accounting for just over 1.0% of
the total industry market share in 2016.”
With a small, experienced team of Masonry experts at his
disposal, Monteiro is finding his share of clients and carving out a niche. He
prefers to run his project tight and lean, offering the best value for his
clients. “I have a supervisor to assist my workers with construction and
I supervise all projects.” This close attention to detail is appealing to
clients and gives Monteiro the agility to offer a quality service in a
competitive marketplace.
