Gabriel Stefania, President, has been at the helm of
Essential Design + Build (formerly ATCO Construction) since the division was created in
1980. "Since then," explains Gabe, "we've completed
almost 1,700 jobs totaling in excess $100,000.000. Our
philosophy is to offer full service to all of our tenants -
'One Stop Shopping'. It reminds me of the motto of a
famous men's clothier who once stated '...we have
everything but the shoes...' We want to provide the shoes as well."
"We are capable of providing our clients with
everything that might be needed, on any given project,
from initial planning and design through construction
and securing final approvals from governing authorities."
Our office staff consists of architectural designers, interior designers, decorators, project managers, field superintendents and a Department of Buildings expeditor. In the field, we retain a full crew of carpenters, mill workers and laborers. Our full range of services can be tailored to suit any space in the commercial, residential, retail, hospitality and industrial sectors. We regularly upgrade our hardware and software in order to maintain cutting-edge capabilities in design, drawing, printing and plotting. As a certified US Green Building Council Contractor, we are able to provide sustainable construction that respects environmental integrity.
Our entire staff is familiar with LEEDŽ and two of our people are LEEDŽ accredited professionals.
Whether building
a new lobby, installing a new facade, or remodeling a kitchen, Essential Design + Build is intimately involved with every stage of the job. The staff of
architects and skilled workmen collaborates directly with clients on the
design, planning and building to achieve award-winning results that function
the way they were intended to.
Gabe oversees each
and every construction and renovation project. Wherever he goes, whether
it’s Montauk, Long Island, Phoenix, Arizona, or Charleston, North
Carolina, he tells everyone, “Superior construction and design are
crucial to the life of a building. Essential Design + Build maintains the highest standards
on all our properties.”
