Through self-determination and fortitude, Bob LaRosa worked to create the fundamental basis of today's organization.In 1987, the R.N. LaRosa Corp. (RNLC) was created. RNLC began to build and renovate private offices, restaurants, municipal facilities, institutional facilities and industrial facilities.
RNLC was changed to LaRosa Building Group, LLC in 1997. LaRosa Building Group, LLC (LBG) continued to expand by adding larger and more complex projects.
Today, LaRosa Building Group has grown to include many different types of construction including General Construction, Construction Management, Design-Builds, Heavy Highway & Civil Construction, and Concrete Construction.
