The Construction Source

“I’m very passionate about what I do,” Sergio says, “and the same goes for my staff. I think that passion is reflected in our results.” Sergio inherited his passion for construction from his father, Rocco Bertucci, someone thought by many to be a “Renaissance man” of building. Before and after emigrating from Italy in the 50s, Rocco trained and worked tirelessly in a number of trades. Many times, he would take his five sons along to help with projects. Of those sons, Sergio developed a particular inclination for the industry, and he began coming along more often than the rest. At only 14 years old, Sergio could cut roof rafters and help his father finish concrete. Throughout his high school years, he continued to hone his skills, while simultaneously studying architecture. For a time, he pursued his second passion, automotive machining, which led him into the industrial millwright trade. In 1983, he began working at Ford Motor Company as a millwright, but his passion for architecture and construction could not be denied; for six years, he worked construction by day and at Ford by night. Eventually, the demands of his growing family, and the growing success of the construction business, led him to pursue building full time.
