Despite industry-wide increased material costs and labor shortages, specialty contractors in the New York and New England regions have bounced back from the COVID-19 pandemic.
In fact, the top 17 firms ranked on this year’s ENR New England list bounced back in a big way. Contractors working in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont logged a combined $2.05 billion in regional revenue for 2021. That’s a whopping 46% increase from the $1.4 billion those firms reported last year. That 2020 total was down 26% from the $1.9 billion the top 17 participating firms reported for 2019.
